Year of the Locust
Year of the Locust is the long awaited new album from Elisa Nicolas. Recorded as the cicadas emerge after 17 years, the record feels both timely and timeless. Jeff Ciampa’s production and a dream team of musicians allowed Elisa to capture her singular artistic vision. Year of the Locust pushes stylistic boundaries, while maintaining a frank lyrical honesty that is a hallmark of Nicolas’ style. Elisa’s distinctive vocals and sophisticated pop belie the complex and broken characters living in her lyrics.
