This is the first new album from the acclaimed vocalist and actor in over 15 years. «Children and Art» is a collection of covers that he has performed with the musician Thomas Bartlett. The sparse recordings featuring Mandy’s powerful, almost operatic voice and Bartlett’s eary minimal piano and mellotron playing include covers of a diverse array of artists including Tom Waits, Randy Newman, Rufus Wainright, Teitur, Chocolate Genius, Laurie Anderson, Lyle Lovett and Stephen Sondheim. |
