Expression

While we’re all still waiting for Sufjan Stevens ‘50 States Project’ to wrap itself up, the Detroit singer and multi-instrumentalist has kept himself busy with side projects, helping the label Asthmatic Kitty and recently release the BQE, which, according to sources is “symphonic and cinematic exploration of New York City’s infamous Brooklyn-Queens Expressway”. A strange exercise no doubt but it nonetheless captures the child-like wonderment and harmonious beauty so characteristic of Stevens’ work, and while it’s no “Come on Feel the Lone Star State” it’ll tide us over until then.
