Amy Sheffer’s I Am Shee: Original Recordings, 1979-1987 ~ New from Freedom To Spend

I Am Shee: Original Recordings, 1979-1987 is a musical anthology and image capsule surveying the work of new york vocalist, composer, and visual artist Amy Sheffer. Arriving October 24 from Freedom To Spend.

Emerging from New York’s lower east side in the late ‘60s, Amy Sheffer worked across music, painting, and performance art for over three decades. Rooted in the city’s loft jazz scene, Sheffer privately pressed a series of albums defined by her vibrato vocals and collaborations with various ensembles. While her music was steeped in the city’s creative community, her visual art was a more solitary pursuit, shaped by her experiences with lsd therapy.

Today we share a first glimpse of the collection in the form of “From the Warm”, a track that exemplifies sheffer’s output.

I Am Shee: Original Recordings, 1979-1987 is available now for pre-order. The collection features selections from her albums and is accompanied by a vibrant print companion of ephemera, photographs, poetry, and hallucinogenic drawings.
