The title is an unusual transliteration of the Arabic word for departure. Written mostly on the road, living between her car and motels. 'Coyote' is a vivid, swaggering one-night-stand tale believed to reference Sam Shepard. 'Amelia' weaves desert imagery with the story of Amelia Earhart. Jaco Pastorius's fretless bass. Fluid, melodic, revolutionary. Defines the sound. Open, spacious, and rhythmically free.
