Sights + Sounds: Mia Pixley's album 'Love. Dark. Bloom'

When you hear the words “dark” and “darkness” what comes to mind?  Many of us may associate the words with mostly negative connotations. In the Black Diaspora, and among other communities of color, there’s an ongoing conversation about why that is… and how to change it. Mia Pixley is a Black cellist, singer, and psychologist based in Oakland. Her new album, “Love. Dark. Bloom”  is a blend of classical, jazz, folk and the blues. Jenee Darden, the host of KALW’s The Sights and Sounds Show, spoke with Mia about how her album explores the beauty of darkness. Hear the full interview here.
