In the latest taste of the Red Hot benefit compilation Transa, Moses Sumney and ANOHNI have joined forces to cover SOPHIE’s “Is It Cold in the Water?” Listen to their take on the Oil of Every Pearl’s Un-Insides track below.
Anohni says in a press release, “Such a blessing to have a chance to sing with Moses Sumney, on his gorgeous rendition of SOPHIE’s mistresspiece.”
Adds Sumney, “I have loved the Red Hot compilations since before I started making music. Dark Was The Night defined an era of my youth. It means a lot to be able to finally pay tribute to SOPHIE, whom I met early in our careers, and it’s an honor to contribute to a cause so near and dear to my heart. Trans rights!”
And, in a further statement, Anohni elaborated:
Out Friday, the Transa compilation (styled TRAИƧA) features a host of new music including Sade’s first song in years, a 30-minute composition by André 3000, an unearthed Pharoah Sanders track, and music from Fleet Foxes, Yaeji, Perfume Genius, L’Rain, Adrianne Lenker, Sam Smith, Beverly Glenn-Copeland, and Clairo, among others.
