The Rise and Fall of American Kitsch
an elvis-inspired exploration of consumerism, commercialism, and plastic pink flamingos
“Simply the title of The Rise and Fall of American Kitsch feels ambitious. But not even this prepares you for what you’ll experience if you approach this album with an open mind, and as a linear work. Karen Jonas has released an exemplar take on the American concept record.” - Saving Country Music
