With Anohni

Mary Anne is joined by Anohni, former lead singer of Antony and the Johnsons, to discuss her new 2016 album Hopelessness.

Mary Anne is joined by ANOHNI, former lead singer of Antony and the Johnsons, to discuss music, theatre and identity.

ANOHNI started out as part of the performance art collective 'Blacklips' while studying at New York University. After securing funding to direct her first play, The Birth of Anne Frank, she formed her first band, Antony and the Johnsons. They went on to release four albums and numerous EPs, the second of which, 'I Am A Bird Now', won the 2005 Mercury Music Prize.

In 2016, ANOHNI will be bringing out her first new record in five years, a dance-inspired electronic release produced by Hudson Mohawke and Oneohtrix Point Never. 'HOPELESSNESS' will be ANOHNI's first solo album, and her first release under her new "spirit name". Expect a playlist that includes tracks from some of ANOHNI's best friends and collaborators, Lou Reed, 叠箩枚谤办 and Nico Muhly...
