Joanna Newsom - Divers

Joanna Newsom's fourth record was released in 2015. 'Divers' was labored over for 2 years with various instruments and collaborators including the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra. Featuring "Anecdotes", "Sapokanikan" and "A Pin-Light Bent".

Speaking about the album's creative process in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, she said "I ... spent a year or two on the instrumental arrangements and overdubs. I wanted the character and colors of the instrumentation to shift definitively, from song to song, which entailed a wide pool of collaborators and a lengthy collaborative process with each person." She further described the process of making the album as "probably the most fun I've had making a record". Entertainment Weekly also reported Newsom "as using an arsenal of nearly a dozen keyboards and synths including clavichords, Mellotrons and Marxophones" for the album while members of the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra feature as players on the album.
