notes
This is the debut album of activist and singer/songwriter Tasha Viets-VansLear or just Tasha as she goes by as a musical artist. She is stated saying that "these songs are bed songs", "songs about the place place that one might go when they finally need to be away from whatever it is that might be causing them stress or anxiety or sadness or fear". Included with this LP was also what's stated as a "poetry zine" with poems inspired by the album, from poets: Tasha Viets-VansLear, Imani Jackson, Keisa Reynolds, Kara Jackson, Jamila Woods, and Stella Binion, all of whom are all Chicago based, black women writers. Limited to 500 copies.The following is taken from the description of this album on the label's website:
On her debut album Alone at Last, Tasha celebrates the radical political act of being exquisitely gentle with yourself. For years, the Chicago songwriter has dreamed hard of a better world—she's worked with the local racial justice organization Black Youth Project 100 and has been on the front lines at protests around the city. But as she returned to the guitar, an instrument her mother first taught her to play when she was 15 years old, she began exploring the ways music can be a powerful force for healing. It might not fix a deeply broken world all by itself, but it can offer comfort and respite for those who, like her, dare to imagine a thriving future.
