Coinciding with the announcement, Light in the Attic has released the first digital single off the compilation, Light in the Attic & Friends ‒ Ethan and Maya Hawke’s cover of Willie Nelson’s “We Don’t Run”, as their debut release together.
For more than 20 years, celebrated archival label Light in the Attic (LITA) has shined a spotlight on some of music’s most unique – and often forgotten – voices. But reviving these long-out-of-print recordings is only half of the process. “We believe that an essential component of archival work, aside from simply honoring the music, is to seek ways in which to bring fresh perspectives, context, and reverence to the original artists and their work,” says LITA Founder and Co-Owner, Matt Sullivan.
