Anna Burch has arrived. Though she’s been around the music scene a bit, playing with various bands over the past few years, we’ll all remember 2018 as the year her debut solo album landed. It’s no surprise that the Detroit musician is incredibly talented and extremely likeable — like another BTR favorite, Fred Thomas, who apparently brought her to the attention of their shared label, Polyvinyl (which, now that you mention it, is another favorite of ours around here … ). Anna’s songs have a bit of a 90s slacker guitar-pop vibe that feels both familiar and fresh. We were psyched to have her and her band join us for this amazing session at Serious Business Music in Brooklyn.
Anna Burch’s debut album, Quit The Curse, is available now from Polyvinyl.
