For Johanna Warren, spirituality and humanity are inextricable from each other: “it’s all energy,” as she writes. The Portland singer-songwriter has been around a while her voice, clear as water, has shadowed the records of Iron & Wine, Natalie Merchant and Julie Byrne. But she broke out on her own in 2015 with her sophomore album, nūmūn, which was about transformation and healing in concert with the cycles of the moon. Come February 2018, Warren will release a new album, “Gemini II”, the twin album of 2016’s Gemini I. The first track to be released, “Here To Tell,” tells of one man’s liminal reverie and its implications for humanity.
