Overview
For the first time in 15 years, ANOHNI presents a concert with The Johnsons in Chicago. AHNONI formed her group The Johnsons in 1998 and established a unique path as an artist with a focus on animist and eco-feminist themes. ANOHNI’s musical journey has spanned genres - from electronic experimental to avant-classical, dance, and soul.
Achieving breakthrough success in 2005 with I Am a Bird Now, she garnered the UK’s Mercury Award. Releases since include The Crying Light (2009), Swanlights (2010), and live albums Cut The World (2012) and TURNING (2014). In 2016, she released the sharply political electronic album HOPELESSNESS which was noted as one of the year’s top ten albums by the NY Times. That same year, she was nominated for an Academy Award (best song) for the environmentalist elegy, Manta Ray, featured in the film Racing Extinction. ANOHNI’s sixth studio album, My Back Was A Bridge For You To Cross (2023) was named album of the year by The New Yorker.
This concert is presented by Jam Productions.
