We are very pleased to introduce you all to Daughter of Swords, the solo project from Mountain Man’s Alexandra Sauser-Monnig. Listen to the beautiful first single “Gem” now + stay tuned for more news.
Mountain Man’s Alexandra Sauser-Monnig is stepping out on her own with her debut solo album, titled Dawnbreaker(out June 28th on Nonesuch Records), also her first full-length under the Daughter of Swords name. “Dawnbreaker” is an airy acoustic dream track with rumbling chords so warm and inviting you’ll want to sink into them like a bath. Sauser-Monnig, who wrote many of Dawnbreaker’s 10 tracks while anticipating the dissolution of a relationship, sees life mirrored in nature, likening herself to “a white rose,” “red hawk,” “hollow reed” or even “just a leaf” at different points in the song.
“Dawnbreaker” is on the debut album from Daughter of Swords, out 28th june via Nonesuch Records.
