ANNE METTE IVERSEN'S DOUBLE LIFE - SO MANY ROADS Posted: 03 Apr 2014 11:55 AM PDT So Many Roads, the grand new album from bassist/composer Anne Mette Iversen's Double Life, to be released on Brooklyn Jazz Underground Records on April 22, is a very personal recording for Iversen. The artist explains, "Its conception and realisation has been a long journey. Along the road I had many ideas about how to present it to you: which story to tell you, which words to describe it with and which pictures to paint in your head. In the end, I rejected them all to let the music speak for itself, and, hopefully, to leave space for it to become your own personal journey."  The music on So Many Roads has the ability to conjure up and provoke emotions, feelings and vivid images. In a word, it is picturesque. Good art transforms within the listener, viewer or reader, to become a deeply personal experience and bring them on a journey as well. "It is my hope that the art, the music, on this album is strong enough to give the listener an experience that sends them on their own personal journey; and therefore, in this context, my personal journey is irrelevant," commented Iversen.
