Suzanne Vega Announces New Album Flying With Angels: Hear “Speakers’ Corner”

A few months ago, I wrote an Alternative Number Ones column about Suzanne Vega’s “Blood Makes Noise.” That wasn’t exactly a huge song in the grander context of the veteran New York singer-songwriter’s long career, but it’s a really good one nevertheless. It also made a fun excuse to do a Suzanne Vega deep-dive, and that’s always something worth doing. Vega has a tremendous catalog, and it’s about to get another entry. This spring, Vega will release her first new studio album in eleven years.
