b'We had the pleasure of interviewing Cindy Alexander over Zoom video!
Singer-Songwriter CINDY ALEXANDER releases her new single, \\u201cBroken but Beloved,\\u201d from the upcoming, While the Angels Sigh, her tenth studio album. \\u201cBroken but Beloved,\\u201d a song about impermanence, was recorded with Grammy award-winning producer and engineer Ross Hogarth at Sunset Sound. It was the last in-person session before the Los Angeles lockdown order took effect in March 2020. Cindy\\u2019s dear friend and touring buddy, Michael Bacon (one-half of the Bacon Brothers and award-winning composer) contributed cello from his studio in New York. After recording his part, he sent Cindy a note, in which she found the title of her new record:
Set for release on April 23, 2021, While the Angels Sigh is at once a musical affirmation of personal power and grace, and an acceptance of human weakness and fallibility. Cindy has written a songbook for the \\u201csandwich generation,\\u201d with wisdom for millennials, and gratitude to the generations that came before her.
During the most stressful time of her adult life, Cindy Alexander wrote and recorded her new album. Through the most trying of conditions - her mother dying from dementia, navigating through the pandemic and civil protests, all while teaching her twin daughters from home during the \\u201cSafer at Home\\u201d order, Cindy\\u2019s strength and creativity came to the fore.
Cindy entered Sage & Sound Studio at the end of 2019 with a dream team of musicians, led by producer/bass player Sean Hurley (Vertical Horizon, John Mayer, Colbie Caillat) and producer/ drummer Victor Indrizzo (Alanis Morissette, Sara Bareilles, Lizzo). Other A-list players on the album include guitarist David Levita (Alanis Morissette, Lana Del Rey, Sheryl Crow) and piano from Michael Farrell (Alanis Morissette, Macy Gray).
The remaining tracks were recorded socially distanced during last year\'s lockdown, transferred back and forth between home studios before finally finishing up in Cindy\\u2019s bedroom at her new home in Big Sur. Although the creative process was a challenge, the result is a triumph. While the Angels Sigh is an achingly personal album that speaks to and for all of us, and a musical tribute to a broken but beloved humanity.
