about
Trouble is the second single from "I Have Considered The Lilies", Gaya's upcoming album, a reimagination of the music of Connie Converse - an enigmatic singer-songwriter who left behind a staggering archive of music and texts after her disappearance in 1974. Alongside a group of cult-favorite Brooklynite collaborators including Grey Mcmurray (guitar), Tal Yahalom (guitar), and Eva Lawitts (bass), Gaya invites the listener into the intimate world of Converse’s songs, poems, and ontological wrestlings with equal doses of warmth and melancholy.
To be released April 23rd, 2020.
lyrics
(Trouble, or "Ever Since We Met", 1950-1951)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ever since we met,
The world's been upside down.
And if you don't stop troubling me
You'll drive me out of town.
But if you go away,
As trouble ought to do,
Where will I find another soul,
To tell my trouble to?
My bed is made of stone,
A star has burnt my eye,
I'm going down to the willow tree
And teach her how to cry!
But if you go away,
As trouble ought to do,
Where will I find another soul,
To tell my trouble to?
They bid me wear my hat,
Put on a nice new gown,
I tossed my bonnet over the roof
And I guess it won't come down.
But if you go away,
As trouble ought to do,
Where will I find another soul,
To tell my trouble to?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This album will make you dance, wonder, cry, scream - you name it. All the feels. Almog's writing is like nothing else, elevating, full of humour and ever-surprising. Gaya Feldheim Schorr
Kalia's new release is one of my favorite Jazz albums of the year. It's soft and magical and powerful, with the most beautiful melodies. Gaya Feldheim Schorr
