NO SHADOW [LP]

Nectar's Kamila Glowacki spent four months painstakingly?painting the album cover for No Shadow on?canvas. A pink mirror re ects the image of lemons?posed directly in front of it as well as the unseen,?empty space beyond. Flip over the record and you'll? nd the tracklist printed on the back of the canvas,?revealing the physical record itself to be a facsimile of?Glowacki's painting.?Inspired by Dutch still life paintings, Glowacki?describes the process as a meticulous labor of love?that required her to 'wring out every possible drop' of?herself into the band's latest release. No Shadow is?two works in one, then: an album and a painting?created in separate but parallel artistic processes, two?mirror images in constant conversation with one?another.?No Shadow follows up Nectar's 2018 full-length debut?Knocking at the Door with ten tracks co-produced by?Glowacki and Champaign-based composer and?producer Andrew M Rodriguez. Recorded over the?course of a year, No Shadow nds Glowacki at her?most self-assured as a songwriter and vocalist.?No Shadow's title references the dual concepts of?certainty and enlightenment. Evoking Plato's allegory?of the cave, Glowacki describes turning to face the?sun and rejecting the false illusion of reality created?by the darkness of depression.??Tracklist:?1. Stay?2. Routine?3.
