Jessica Pratt: Here in the Pitch [Mexican Summer]
Here in the Pitch is Jessica Pratt’s first album in half a decade. Pratt previewed her follow-up to 2019’s Quiet Signs with “Life Is,” “World on a String,” and closing track “The Last Year,” all of which are informed by psychedelic 1960s pop. The title, per a press release, refers to “pitch darkness,” as well as bitumen, the black viscous substance that forms deep below the surface of the earth, suggesting a dose of darkness lurking beneath the album’s woozy sheen. Pratt will perform a live set at Pitchfork Music Festival in Chicago in July.
