Produced by pop-rock virtuoso Butch Walker, and mainly recorded during a series of trips to Walker’s Nashville studio, Natural Disaster sees Cosentino truly putting her voice front and center – literally and metaphorically – for the first time ever. It’s an album of gritty luminosity, one that expands Cosentino’s relatable point of view and showcases her growth as a songwriter and lyricist. “For so many years I used music as a form of survival—I wasn’t in therapy, so I’d sit on the floor and the songs would just pour out of me,” she says. “With this record I put much more thought into the kind of stories I wanted to tell, and how I wanted to tell them.”
