Rita Wilson has shared another single from her upcoming sixth album.
Co-written with Grammy-winning songwriter Amy Wadge, Michelangelo is a choir-accompanied ballad that arrives alongside a striking video directed by Steven Sebring and filmed in New York City. Wilson said:
"Michelangelo was asked how he made such exquisite statues out of blocks of stone; his answer was, ‘I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.’ So much of becoming ourselves involves the lifelong work of chipping away at what’s nonessential and getting closer to the truth of who we are as women. That process is not without pain and loss, but in the end there’s so much beauty to be gained from the constant practice of looking inward with real curiosity and courage.
"As an artist, or as a woman in any facet of our lives, we are sculpting ourselves into being. Which to me means getting rid of all the excess and discovering who you are in the most essential sense, recognizing the work you’ve done to become the person you are."
Following the title track last month, Michelangelo marks the second preview of 'Sound Of A Woman', which Wilson co-produced with Grammy-winner Dave Cobb and recorded at Nashville's legendary RCA Studio A.
She'll follow its May 1 release with several City Winery shows, kicking off in Atlanta on June 2. Head here for more details.
