ABOUT THE ALBUM / MORE PERFECT
More Perfect, a Radiolab spinoff podcast about American democracy, commissioned acclaimed musicians and artists from around the world to write original songs inspired by each of the 27 amendments to the U.S. Constitution.
“The mission of this album is to take these sometimes forgotten words and animate them through the power of music. These 27 amendments not only outline our basic rights as Americans, but they also show a country changing, evolving, re-imagining itself. Striving—and not always succeeding — to be better. These songs are a small way to say that these words matter. We’re thrilled to bring listeners this music in this critical moment.” — Jad Abumrad
The album accompanies the third season of More Perfect, featuring Dolly Parton, Devendra Banhart, Kash Doll and more wonderful artists. Episodes of the podcast season serve as “audio liner notes” to the compilation. Golden Globe, Emmy, and Tony award-winning actor Jeffrey Wright (Westworld, The Hunger Games), lends his voice to the podcast series, narrating each of the 27 amendments. With visual artwork from Luis Mazón, this package from More Perfect will explore the rich history and meaning infused within the constitutional amendments.
