Kate Trajan Releases New Song “Amazon's Dilemma”
Canadian jazz-pop singer-songwriter Kate Trajan will her upcoming debut album “Ancient Fires” on September 20, 2024 via Pastiche Records.
From the album, she released a new song “Amazon's Dilemma” on August 8, 2024.
The song is the second single off of the album, following “No One To Dream About” released back in June.
It was written by Kate Trajan, and produced by Sarah Gillespie and Chris Montague.
Kate Trajan said of the song, "On the surface, this is just another song about Amazon warrior women wondering whether they should be treating their male sex slaves any better. But I wrote it as an exploration of how we treat each other when we become the ones with power. If we have been harmed by others, does that make us more or less likely to treat people with kindness and compassion when we are in control? This Amazon is feeling conflicted."- The debut album is the follow-up to the 2022 debut EP “Yesterday Left Without Her Suitcase”.
She recorded the album with producer Sarah Gillespie at Eastcote Studios London.
Kate Trajan said of the album, “This album is a collection of songs that were mostly written in earlier chapters of my life, or written looking back on those earlier chapters. The title, Ancient Fires, refers to the stars in the sky - just like old flames or life-changing events that burned bright and were all-consuming when they were happening, now from a distance, while they are still there, burning away, I only see them when I step outside on a clear night and look up.” -
