Product description


Rage, confusion, despair, self-deception, and introspection Madi Diaz cycles through the full spectrum of emotions on History Of A Feeling. Its an album that undeniably marks Diazs status as a first-rate songwriter, a craft shes spent years refining, and one wherein Diaz establishes herself as an artist capable of distilling profound feelings with ease. Diaz pulls from a range of folk, country, and pop leanings she is as much influenced by Patty Griffin and Lori McKenna as she is the sonics of PJ Harvey and directness of Kathleen Hanna.

On History Of A Feeling, the Nashville based songwriter comes to terms with the dissolution of a meaningful relationship. By the end of it, she wills herself into a self-reflective state where she doesnt hate herself for being so heartbroken. These songs are the most direct and introspective songs Diaz has ever written. In the few times she's beeen able to perform them live in front of an audience, Diaz describes the experience as one where she feels "acutely present even though she's singing about emotions that started to take root years ago. Its relatable to anyone who has experienced heartbreak and great change in some manner, and this profound sense of intimacy and camaraderie she seamlessly weaves into the songs was important to her. I wanted it to sound conversational, like I had just walked over to your house and were sitting and at the end of your driveway talkingjust like were hashing it out in the same way that youd call a best friend at one in the morning because you needed to talk about what just happened."
