In May, composer, musician, and producer Kara-Lis Coverdale released her first new album in eight years, From Where You Came.
It was followed by her second album of 2025, A Series of Actions in a Sphere of Forever, in September.
Today, Coverdale details her third full-length release of the year, Changes In Air, out 21 November via Smalltown Supersound, and unveils its lead single ‘Curve Traces of Held Space’.
Changes In Air is a work for electric organ, modular synthesis, and piano in five sections.
The album was adapted from a work originally written for installation at Skarven in Oslo, a floating sauna facing the expansive fjord which is heated by wood fire and solar radiation.
Five “materials” influence the album's arrangements: wood, water, sun, glass, and metal.
Coverdale composed, played, and recorded Changes In Air alone in Marquette, Manitoba in 2019 and completed it this year.
Known for her musical innovations at the intersection of experimental electronics and minimalist traditions, Coverdale’s releases have garnered acclaim for their deep exploration of timbre.
This year’s trilogy of albums released by Smalltown Supersound are Coverdale’s first major new works since Grafts (2017), Aftertouches (2015, Sacred Phrases), and A 480 (2014, Constellation Tatsu).
Coverdale has performed concert halls, clubs, and festivals throughout Europe, North America, Asia, and Australia headlining and touring with Big Thief, Caribou, Gagaku Ensemble and Floating Points (including as a part of his Promises ensemble at The Hollywood Bowl in LA).
She has previously collaborated with with Actress, Yasuaki Shimizu, Caterina Barbieri and Lyra Pramuk and has created compositions for film, theatre, dance, symphonic instrumentation, and installation, including Cello Octet Amsterdam, Hamilton Philharmonic Orchestra, Vanemuine Theatre, NYC Contemporaneous Ensemble and Ludens Choir with pipe organ a connective tissue throughout much of her work.
