Each track is a conversation between artists. It means let in all life has to offer, even its very end. It means welcoming the endless expansion of your community.
New faces, new concepts, new fears, new gratitude.
Dilate your heart means: make room, let more in. But the oft-used Jagjaguwar mantra certainly owes a psychic debt to their passages - a debt to Ross Gay as a member of this community and as an artist living here in Bloomington, Ind., where Jagjaguwar is based. “Dilate Your Heart” does not stem from any one of Gay’s poems. ‘Dilate Your Heart’ captures Ross Gay’s poems and lets that orchard into their lines, with deep and loving compositions from Jagjaguwar artists and artists we’ve adored for years with this ever-dilating heart of ours. And so we are launching our 25th Anniversary celebration with 'Dilate Your Heart', our first spoken word album since titan Robert Creeley’s self-titled release twenty years ago. They have crept into our hearts and made a home of all of us. Over the last 12 years, his poems have given us indelible images and phrases of radical empathy and unabated gratitude about community, collaboration, connectedness and hard work. It’s a place open to all, a place teeming with life and abound with nature’s gifts. Vinyl LP ($24.99) Opaque Green Vinyl / Catalog Number JAG401lp-C1 / Release Date April 9, 2019įrom the label: The community orchard that poet Ross Gay helped build in Bloomington is a physical representation of all he puts into his writing.
