Singer-songwriter May Erlewine’s new album offers a different side of an artist known for warm, intimate lyrics and bespoke acoustic arrangements. 

But the qualities that draw fans into May Erlewine’s music are still here, just with a less-compliant exterior. 

What It Takes is the second album she’s made with friend and producer Theo Katzman, of the post-funk band Vulfpeck. 

Erlewine has been thinking about the chaos of the moment and the moral choices she feels compelled to make.
