'red letter year' is the mesmerising new album from the legendary ani difranco and is her first collection of new material in 3 years. "i've got myself a new mantra" ani difranco shares on her new studio album. "it says 'don't forget to have a good time". this mantra has clearly influenced the dozen tunes on 'red letter year', which celebrate existence, profess love and tackle thorny political issues with an infectious sense of glee. it's one of ani's most joyous records to date. 'red letter year' wasn't just recorded - it was sculpted over the course of two years. this period allowed ani to concentrate on the growth of her craft - and her new daughter. "i think i sorely needed to be slowed down, and finally a little person came along powerful enough to do it", ani reminisces. if a few of these songs are familiar to fans, it's because they've been thoroughly road-tested and approved. and all of them have benefited from a couple years of tender loving care; this is focused, layered, panoramic music. ani difranco's feeling good, and she's in a giving mood - 'red letter year' isn't just a party, it's a music lover's gift.
