Kimaya Diggs "Green" Album Release with Grace Givertz

Doors 7

Recently off tour dates with Mavis Staples, Emily King, Trombone Shorty, and more, musician Kimaya Diggs navigates her world with stories. Her songwriting serves as both a portal and a roadmap toward a future self; a not-yet-envisioned world and way of being. Her new album, Green (out October 2), is an extended love missive to the New England landscape, asking questions of belonging and goodness. Green showcases twelve tracks of glittering, genre-bending indie pop, carried by Diggs’ powerful, honeyed vocals, and honest, attentive lyricism. 

Her songwriting has earned her many accolades, including a New England Music Awards nod, gigs at legendary folk haunts like Club Passim, and appearances at Green River Festival, Rubblebucket’s Dream Picnic, and the Emily Dickinson Poetry Festival. festival. 

On Green, it’s clear Diggs has been forced to harden herself against the heartbreak that comes along with loving and being loved, but it would be foolish to mistake her hard-won grit for surliness aimed toward the world. It’s this very grit that shapes her love into something more capacious and ever-expanding. Her softness is in turn reserved for herself, the ones closest to her, and the earth. It’s this faithful preservation that serves as Green’s trustworthy tether.
