Brooklyn-based, English songwriter Fenne Lily shares her compelling new single, "Sleeping". Alongside the single, she has announced a series of intimate release shows across New York, Los Angeles, and the UK in support of her upcoming fourth studio album, Win Win (out October 23 via Nettwerk Music Group).
Written in the immediate aftermath of a phone breakup, "Sleeping" served as the emotional proof-of-concept for the entire record. "I say what I mean and am a little bit mean in the process"it's a thoughtful rage," Fenne explains. Featuring a gorgeous interplay of keys, guitars, and mouth-trumpet (courtesy of bandmate Isaac Stalling), the track captures the album's searching, triumphant energy.
The upcoming performances will give audiences a first look at Win Win, a gilded, grounded body of work recorded largely live. Written and recorded over 18 months of snowstorms, heat waves, and life changes following her move from England to New York, the album explores resilience, integrity, and pain as a driving force.
On the shows, Fenne shares: "These shows are birthday parties for the record before we hit the road proper. This album was made by people playing live in a room and should be celebrated in the same way."
