Wary + Strange

The Rounder Records debut from Amythyst Kiah, Wary + Strange marks the glorious collision of two vastly different worlds: the iconoclastic alt-rock that first sparked her musical passion, and the roots/old-time-music scene where shes found breakout success in recent years. Produced by Tony Berg (Phoebe Bridgers, Amos Lee, Andrew Bird) and made with esteemed musicians like Blake Mills, Wary + Strange arrives as a deeply immersive body of work, endlessly redefining the limits of roots music in its inventive rhythms and textures. Amythyst Kiah is redefining the limits of roots music. The mold-shattering singer/songwriter has been described by Rolling Stone as 'one of Americana's great up-and-coming secrets'. With an unforgettable voice that's both unfettered and exquisitely controlled, Amythyst's ability to cross boundaries is born from struggle. Growing up a Black and LGBTQ+ woman in the Bible Belt, she experienced severe social anxiety, grief, alienation - and ultimately, the hard-won triumph of total self-acceptance.
