Valerie June - The Moon And Stars: Prescriptions For Dreamers

New Valerie June Album The Moon & Stars: Prescriptions For Dreamers

Out March 12th

Valerie June will release her first new album in four years The Moon & Stars: Prescriptions For Dreamers on March 12th, 2021 via Fantasy Records. Produced by Jack Splash (Kendrick Lamar, Alicia Keys, John Legend) and Valerie June, the new album is sweeping and ambitious with earthy R&B production and a touch of psychedelia amidst its astral folk-pop orchestration, the pair arrived at a sound that is elegant and endlessly surprising. At the center is June’s spellbinding vocals and infectious sense of wonder that finds the Brooklyn-via-Memphis artist narrating the often precarious journey to joyful possibility.

Valerie June - Call Me A Fool

 

“Have you ever been a fool for a dream? It might have been a little dream like a kiss from a lover or a big one like the dream of peace that Dr. King, John Lennon, and so many others have had for humanity. No matter how big or how small your dream may be, keep believing, and let the world call you a fool!”
-Valerie on “Call Me A Fool”
