Big Thief present new single, “Vampire Empire”, off their forthcoming ‘Vampire Empire’ / ‘Born For Loving You’ 7” vinyl release due out on 20th October. This year, the song took on a life of its own after a performance on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert and has become a live fan favourite.
Critically-acclaimed band Big Thief performs a new, unreleased song, “Vampire Empire,” exclusively for The Late Show.
The studio version recorded and produced by Dom Monks at Guissona, Spain’s Teatre de cal Eril Studio during a recent tour, ‘Vampire Empire’ speaks to the beautiful complexity of gender identity and breaking destructive internal cycles.
Of the song, Adrianne Lenker adds, “For me, it’s about getting out of toxic internal patterns – leaving the empire of energy drains that obscure pure essence, learning about what healthy boundaries are, and finding the power to implement them for the possibility of giving and receiving (both inwardly and outwardly) unbroken and infinite Love.”
