While Bedouine’s 2017 self-titled debut delighted with mostly guitar and vocals, her third album, Waysides, follows in the footsteps of 2019’s Bird Songs of a Killjoy, complementing Azniv Korkejian’s angelic vocals with instrumentals that transport listeners into their own folky fairytale. “It started as a really simple endeavor,” Korkejian tells Apple Music about producing the flourishes you hear throughout the album’s 10 songs. “I just assumed it would be guitar/vocals, but I just had so much time. Then my partner , who was just going to mix them, encouraged me to stick with the productions and let them develop. They became a lot more complex than I initially intended them to be.” Waysides is a collection of songs Korkejian has written over the years that may have remained castoffs had a pandemic not given her the time and space to revisit them. “I never would’ve had time to sift through all these old demos and be thoughtful about where they should live,” she says. “I had a folder of songs I thought I should consider for the next record, then I noticed it was growing so much that it could become its own record.” User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
