UK singer songwriter Fenne Lily — who moved to New York City in the time since she released her sophomore album, “Breach” in 2020 — has announced a new album, “Big Picture”, which was recorded at Brad Cook’s studio in North Carolina. Fenne Lily co-produced the album with Cook, save for one track that was produced with Christian Lee Hutson, with whom she’ll head out on an extensive tour later this year. Today, she’s sharing the album’s muted and shimmering lead single “Lights Light Up.”
“Iʼd never really written about love in the present tense before this, but even though I was still in love and not thinking about the end, there was something else going on subconsciously that led to a song about moving on before the moving on had begun,” she noted in a press release, continuing:
When it came time to record, the band and I had been playing it live for a while and itʼd become something joyful and positive, but when I started recording vocals, the lyrics made me cry. By that point the song was over a year old and I thought those wounds had healed but I guess it hurt to admit Iʼd been letting go of something while still trying to hold on.
“Lights Light Up” by Fenne Lily from the upcoming album ‘Big Picture’, out April 14th on Dead Oceans.
