Gearing up for the release of 'Unfollow the Rules,' Rufus Wainwright will perform the LP in full at a livestream concert on Saturday
“The Paramour Session will show a completely different side of,” Wainwright said in a statement. “Acoustic, stripped back, sparser, but in a Rufus Wainwrightian sense of course. Good songs can survive in many different environments. I want my fans to have an opportunity to hear the music live when the album comes out.
“Rather than attempting to imitate the sound of the album, I think it’s both more responsible and more creatively interesting to try something new,” he added. “There are no drums, no effects, no bass, no horns, no flutes, no back-up vocals — only strings that are bowed, picked, hammered, or strummed, and my voice. Let’s hope less is more.
