Kimaya Diggs with Lexie, Les AilesSoul'd Out Presents: Kimaya Diggs with special guests Lexie, Les Ailes Doors: 7:00pm Show: 8:00pm Ages 21+. https://www.kimayadiggs.com/ When Kimaya Diggs thinks of green, she thinks first of her backyard in summer. Her house sits against woods that open onto a farm, and in the warm months the whole place seems to layer itself: trees over trees, native plants, birds, insects, and the deep living texture of land that has been tended carefully. When she moved there, the landscape was crowded with invasive plants. For years, she has worked to bring it back into balance. That image became the beginning of Green, her new album out October 2nd: a record about growth that has been happening quietly for a long time, then arrives all at once. , "rdquo" -> To me, green captures the seasonal moment when the first leaves come out," Diggs says. , "rdquo" -> There's no other moment where the landscape transforms so rapidly. The transition from summer into fall is very slow, but the transition from winter into just that moment of all the leaves coming out is so extraordinary to me. And it feels like some of the personal growth that I've made, which feels like it's taken a long time to come and then, when it comes, it comes suddenly." For Diggs, a musician, songwriter, poet, producer, and world-builder from Western Massachusetts, Green marks a moment of arrival. Newly off supporting dates with Mavis Staples, Emily King, Trombone Shorty, and Tank & the Bangas, she enters this album with a clearer sense of her own authority: as a vocalist, as a storyteller, and, for the first time in such a complete way, as the lead producer directing the shape of the record.
