Drama - Out Now
Nicole Atkins Raises the Curtain on New Album
All the world’s a stage in Nicole Atkins’ Drama— her seventh studio LP and first in five years. Produced by Pat Sansone (Wilco) in Nashville and written by Nicole, the retro rock chanteuse faces herself in the mirror with bold, intimate tracks exploring dreams, love, pain, and more. Arriving on Sun Records, Drama spans 60s jangle pop to delightful 90s grooves for out-of-time instant classics like “Trippin’ On Teardrops,” “Singing In the Mirror,” and “Cue The Symphony,” featuring Chris Isaak.
