Sienna Spiro – Visitor

Today, show-stopping London-born singer and songwriter SIENNA SPIRO announces her eagerly anticipated debut album, Visitor, out July 3rd via Capitol Records.

In a testament to the enthralling power of her timeless songcraft and stunning voice, all three of the album’s previously released singles have simultaneously charted on the Billboard Hot 100.

A striking opening statement, Visitor is a high-concept and wholly elegant collision of rich soul and symphonic pop that explores the inherent fragility of life and love. Disarmingly candid and staggeringly beautiful, the album was executive produced by Omer Fedi (Sam Smith, SZA), with additional production from an elite crew including Blake Slatkin, Yakob, and Michael Pollack, plus orchestral composers like Larry Gold (Al Green, Silk Sonic) and Academy Award winner Peter Rotter. SIENNA and her hand-picked collaborators brought her vision to life in an array of legendary spaces like Electric Lady Studios in New York, Abbey Road Studios in London, and Valentine Recording Studios in Los Angeles.

In a gorgeous contrast to Visitor’s underlying theme of transience and emotional exile, the result is a richly defined yet unfussy sonic world that feels fully lived-in — endlessly tempering its grandeur with a warm, unvarnished intimacy that perfectly complements SIENNA’s poignant, soul-searching songwriting and the raw impact of her powerhouse vocals.

Ahead of the release, SIENNA spoke on the album’s theme: “I’ve always had a strong awareness of impermanence; I’m very fearful of things ending and people leaving. It’s so intense that I often won’t participate in new relationships or anything I know won’t last, so in a way I’ve spent most of my life feeling like a visitor — like someone who’s just passing through. Making this album really taught me how to savor things in the moment, instead of constantly worrying about the future. When people hear the record, I hope it helps them to find some comfort in the fact that everything is temporary. We don’t always have to rush to let go — we can let things matter without needing them to last.”

With Visitor on the way, SIENNA shows no sign of slowing down as she brings “The Visitor Tour” to the UK and Europe later this month, followed by a slate of summer and fall festival appearances, including Montreaux Jazz Festival and All Points East, as well as stateside stops such as Lollapalooza, Newport Jazz, Outside Lands, All Things Go, and Austin City Limits
