Big Bear and Joshua Tree: Where Remi Wolf Made "Mud"

Remi Wolf made her new album, "Mud," in two California settings that could hardly be more different: the pines of Big Bear and the open desert of Joshua Tree. The singer-songwriter went to both places to write and shape the record after a long, demanding stretch on the road. Vogue calls the result the most grown-up and freeing work she has released so far. This desk usually follows an artist's chapters through what she wore and where she wore it, and here the places are the story: a mountain town and a high-desert park, each within driving distance of Los Angeles, became the workshop for a whole album. The title suits that kind of setting, earthy and unpolished, a name that sounds like the ground underfoot.
