Cantautor Aimee Mann on the “Lost in Space” tour, new musical

The singer -songwriter Aimee Mann is back on the road this summer with a route along the east coast that will take it to the Williamsburg music room in Brooklyn and the east end of Long Island this June.

Known for his personal and personal lyrics and the melodic and melodic voice, he touches the successes of his fourth studio album, released in 2002. This means that fans in their 21 programs could hear these songs, which the great millennials among us could remember “Buffy the vampire Slayer” – for the first time.

We got up to date with Aimee to register -our lives on the and what inspires his latest work.

You are celebrating the 22th anniversary of the 1/2 years of your album “Lost in Space” with a tour of East Coast (playing the large dance hall in Canoe Place Inn in Hampton Bays on June 12). Why this album and why now?

We were a bit slow of the brand. We wanted to make the 20th anniversary, but for several reasons that took longer. Obviously, I like all my albums, but I feel that it has such an interesting sound and really creates a state of mind.

Your catalog reduces the genres: from the success “Voices Carry” with the new wave band to Tuesday to “save” the Worm of the Ear of the 90’s of the soundtrack “Magnolia” Nominated to Oscar. Your “Mental Disease” album even won the 2018 Grammy Award for the best popular album. Do you still evolve as an artist?

The first band I was in was this type of rock art, punk, one of the New Wave bands, one of those bands you say, “DO All strange.” What is very fun but not necessarily fun for the listener. Until Tuesday it was a reaction against this. I wanted to play more melodic music. I think you need a lot of practice in the composition of songs to find out what you like and what you are well. It is a lot of experimentation and over time you realize: “Oh, this is the kind of thing that I am very good, or” this is the kind of thing I like to do “. And acoustic pop -based pop with a small popular taste is my favorite place to park.

But there is also this quality of your songs that I think defines you. Do you agree?

I like this description. This is a fun way to think of myself. But no, I really didn’t think about it. I just know that words are very important and it is fun to try to improve the letters and be more accurate in your language.

You are in the with your husband Michael Penn. Do you have plans for your time in New York when you are not on stage?

I have very good friends in Brooklyn I stay with when I go to New York. So it seems that I have my coffee in the neighborhood. But I never lived in New York; I spent 15 years in Boston. In this tour, it is difficult to say. It can be inside and out, but it depends on all kinds. I will let Karma decide. Where the tour bus goes, it is where I will go.

Are you working on new music?

I write songs for a new record. I am not sure of what I want it still, but I have a record called “The Forgotten Arm”, [2005] And I have been playing many songs of this, so I am interested in returning to this sound. I am also developing a musical based on these songs. This record was written on drug addiction and the musical is about two people who are together, and one is a drug addict. It is the dynamic of this relationship. I think we will make a presentation of workshops at the Joe pub at some point this fall.
