Illuminati Hotties Power

Not content with a career as a Grammy-winning engineer and producer (her credits include Boygenius, Slowdive and Weyes Blood), since 2017 Sarah Tudzin has also been releasing her own songs under the Illuminati Hotties alias. Power is her first album in three years, during which time she has processed a series of life-upending events (the death of her mother; new love) while working on other people’s records. That period away from her solo project has paid dividends: there is a real lightness of touch to these 13 fat-free and immaculately presented slices of melody-rich indie rock.
