Alicia Walter (ex-Oshwa) announces solo debut album 'I Am Alicia,' releases new single "Prelude"
Alicia Walter, who was the former leader of Chicago art-rock act Oshwa, will unveil their solo debut album in September.
Revealed today, I Am Alicia will be released on September 17 via Sooper Records. The 10-track release was co-produced by Walter and Devin Greenwood (Sufjan Stevens, Steve Reich, Norah Jones). To celebrate the announcement, the artist released the new single (and album opener) “Prelude,” which comes with a Lisa Schatz-directed music video.
Walter said this about “Prelude”:
“I wrote my album I Am Alicia sequentially, starting with 'Prelude'! This song kicks off a wild journey exploring my identity, consciousness, and everything that makes me tick. 'Prelude' is about letting go of any inhibitions holding me back from evolving into who I want to be and remembering that sometimes real wisdom lies in not knowing, rather than assuming I do."
