The Low Anthem's latest Nonesuch release, Smart Flesh, is due out in just a few weeks, on February 22, and is available for pre-order with a limited-edition poster signed by the band, along with an instant download of the album's opening track, "Ghost Woman Blues."

Last month, prior to their concert with Iron and Wine at The Wiltern in Los Angeles, The Low Anthem was in Utah for the Sundance Film Festival, where they performed a couple of sets at the ASCAP Music Café. ASCAP captured their performance of the song "To the Ghosts Who Write History Books," off their previous Nonesuch release, Oh My God, Charlie Darwin, in a video you can watch below.

Interspersed with the performance is a conversation band members Jeff Prystowsky, Jocie Adams, and Mat Davidson had with ASCAP's Erik Philbrook that touched on their affinity for picking up any number of instruments, the dynamic range covered in their repertoire, and the collaborative nature of the band. The performance features Ben Knox Miller on pump organ and vocals, Prystowsky, Adams on clarinet, and Davidson on saw. Watch it here via the ASCAP YouTube channel:


You can see much more of The Low Anthem live in concert when, just days after the release of Smart Flesh, the band hits the road for a tour that begins at the Sixth & I Historic Synagogue in Washington, DC, on February 24. For more information, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour.

    "People have been calling Steve Reich the greatest living composer for more than 25 years," says NPR's Weekend Edition host Ayesha Rascoe in her introduction to Reich's interview with NPR's Tom Huizenga on the release of the 27-disc box set Steve Reich Collected Works. About the collection, the composer says: "It makes me feel very good ... It's another way of saying the music is going to get out there. The music is going to have a life independent of me ... It's a great thing. And I'm very proud that it happened. And now I'm busily working on the next piece." You can hear them on NPR's Weekend Edition here.

    The 27-disc box set Steve Reich Collected Works is out now on Nonesuch. It features music recorded during the composer's 40 years on the label—six decades of his compositions, including first recordings of his two latest works, Jacob’s Ladder and Traveler’s Prayer (both also available to stream/download today)—plus two extensive booklets with new essays by Robert Hurwitz, Michael Tilson Thomas, Russell Hartenberger, Judith Sherman, and Nico Muhly, and a comprehensive listener’s guide by Timo Andres. Nonesuch made its first record with Steve Reich in 1985; he was signed exclusively to the label that year. Collected Works includes 24 discs of Nonesuch recordings and three from other labels. You can watch an unboxing video narrated by the composer here.
