Joy Merten (Into the Void) writesCHIRP Radio welcomes Jenny Hval to Constellation on Thursday Sept. 3rd!

CHIRP Radio welcomes Norwegian artist Jenny Hval to Constellation on Thursday, September 3rd. Jenny Hval is on tour supporting her latest release, the intimate and challenging album Apocalypse, Girl. Her latest work has been synth-based and has pop tinges, but stands firmly in the experimental camp, none of it straightforward and all of it anchored by Hval’s lyrical prowess.

Hval’s work explores religion, feminism and the self, and her live show promises to do more of the same. She and her band have been performing in long, colored wigs as part of their show. Hval told Pitchfork, "It makes me feel so conflicted to wear [the wig], and I believe showing a conflicted person onstage is actually really interesting and emotionally engaging.” Vocalist and composer Briana Marela will open the show.
