Tori Amos - Diving Deeper
Product details
Description
Diving Deeper Live gathers four extended performances from Tori Amos's Ocean to Ocean tour onto a single vinyl EP, the bonus live tracks left off the original Diving Deep Live vinyl.
Recorded on the road in 2022 and 2023 with Jon Evans on bass and Ash Soan on drums, these versions show how fearlessly Amos reshapes her catalogue on stage. Rather than replaying the studio arrangements, she stretches songs out, lets the rhythm section breathe and follows the emotion wherever it leads, often well past the eight-minute mark, without ever losing the thread.
"Here. In My Head" opens the set as a slow, smouldering confessional, piano and voice drawing out every bruised line. "Crazy" unfolds over more than nine minutes, building from intimate reflection into something expansive and hypnotic. On the second side, "Sister Janet" glows with quiet intensity, and "Mother Revolution" closes with a rolling, defiant energy that brings the whole trio into play.
It's a close-up portrait of an artist still restless and searching, decades into a remarkable career, and her playing has rarely sounded so unguarded.
Anyone who caught the tour will find a vivid keepsake here, and anyone who missed it gets a front-row seat to how alive these songs remain in her hands.
