The Story
Mick Harvey & Amanda Acevedo have announced details of their new album Golden Mirrors (The Uncovered Sessions Vol. 1), the first in a series of projects investigating songwriters for whom Harvey and Acevedo have a particular predilection. Golden Mirrors (The Uncovered Sessions Vol. 1) is set for release on Mute digitally on 28 March 2025, with an exclusive gold vinyl Australian edition, via Impressed Recordings, also available on release. The album will precede a series of dates across Europe.
Golden Mirrors is their second collaborative album, following Phantasmagoria in Blue (2021) which received international recognition.
The new album sees the duo cover 11 songs by the American songwriter Jackson C. Frank, an almost forgotten but recently rediscovered folk singer from the mid-sixties, whose sole album release was produced by Paul Simon and who counted Laura Marling, Nick Drake, Sandy Denny, Mark Lanegan and Fairport Convention as fans.
Golden Mirrors delves into a blend of haunting, cinematic soundscapes and emotional introspection, with a heavier focus on both experimental sounds and more expansive, rich arrangements. The album reflects a deepening of the artists' creative chemistry. Mick Harvey's atmospheric guitar work, signature production, and post-punk influences are balanced by Amanda Acevedo's ethereal, emotive voice, which brings an extra dimension to the music. Golden Mirrors explores self-reflection, transformation, and the beauty found in discomfort.
Track list:
Golden Mirror
My Name is Carnival
The Night of the Blues
Cover Me with Roses
The Visit
Marcy’s Song
Blues Run the Game
I Want to be Alone (Dialogue)
