The six songs of I Am Calling For My Lover are shaped from impressions that Rainer Maria Rilke’s Duino Elegies made on the artist. Employing images ranging from Picasso’s acrobats to the profound authenticity of a woman in love, the songs of I Am Calling For My Lover depict how we encounter the world and then transform our experiences within.
The album's title is taken from the seventh elegy which reads, “Look, I was calling for my lover. But not just she/ would come…Out of their fragile graves girls/ would arise and gather…For how could I limit/ the call, once I called it?…”
