Holy Defiance, Angie Pittman

Holy Defiance is a pagan gospel blues album that is grounded in the belief that Black resistance is sacred, and acts of defiance are holy. The work explores the transformative power of embodied resistance and features recorded songs from various Pittman performances (from 2020-2025) and field recordings of improvisational scores, remixed to offer a durational listening experience as a form of meditation, honoring these rich traditions.
