"Appalachian-born singer/songwriter LINDA HAGOOD (DOUBLE-U, SMACK DAB) releases her first solo album Pink Love/Red Love on famed artist CHRIS JOHANSONs Awesome Vistas label. Conjuring a kaleidoscopic, magical, and visionary sonic landscape, Hagood pays tribute to her own unique iconography with lyrical elegies to crabs, kangaroos, caducei, pink and green vampires, and little hyenas. An enchanting and unique hothouse of seeming contradictions -- fierce yet funny, strange yet familiar, hypnotic yet surprising-these songs are also a fully realized musical vision for this soulful, peculiar, and accomplished artist.
