Gina Birch of The Raincoats has announced that she will release her debut solo album, ‘I Play My Bass Loud’, through Jack White’s Third Man Records early next year.“The album distills my years of musical, political and artistic life with these genre-breaking songs”, says Birch. “It’s a personal diary using sounds and lyrics, full of fun, rage and storytelling”.On the album’s title, she says: “There’s the whole thing about women playing their music and wanting to be heard, wanting acknowledgment or the space to do it.
The bass is sometimes assigned as a lesser instrument, and yet because of reggae and the creativity of a lot of women players, it has always been a creative and phenomenal instrument”.“I always thought, if I open my big bay window upstairs [in my house] and play my bass, I’m not some groovy young rapper”, she goes on. “I’m this old white woman playing my bass guitar out of my window.
I just want to stick my head out and yell down the street: ‘Hell, I’m here and I’m playing my bass loud!’”The first single from the album is ‘Wish I Was You’, which features Thurston Moore on guitar.
