Precious Thing

In October 2020, Brooklyn, NY based singer-songwriter Allegra Krieger drove across the country to record her new album with Luke Temple - set to release with Northern Spy, Precious Thing captures fleeting moments in a world that has become sick from itself.

From sharing a gaze with a man as the clock strikes 12 on New Year's on a Coney Island-bound train, to taking a loved one off of life support, to processing the religious trauma of wine, Krieger weaves together a portrait of a woman trying to find meaning. Accompanied by guitars, bowed strings, and piano, this is an album about looking, and Krieger fills up each lonely space she enters with her gaze. Krieger asks you to look, to really, really look, so that you can remember something, however small it is, when it's all gone.
