Today, indie pop songstress Suki Waterhouse unveils her new album Loveland set for release July 10th via Island Records. Suki will release the album’s second single “Tiny Raisin” this Friday, offering listeners another glimpse into Loveland. Pre-save/Pre-order Loveland HERE.
Suki shares, “Loveland to me lives in the distance between a former self who felt most alive in romance, fantasy and momentum, and a present self reaching for something steadier, more intimate and more true. That split is deepened by motherhood, and by the strange feeling of becoming someone new while still carrying the shape of who you were before.”
Over the course of 14 tracks co-written by Suki, Loveland wrestles with that contrast and tension, while navigating the fractures in one’s identity. Suki created Loveland with some of music’s brightest luminaries including Amy Allen, Aaron Dessner, Joel Little, Dan Wilson, and her longtime collaborators Jules Apollinaire and Natalie Findlay.
Suki’s album announcement comes just a few weeks after releasing the album’s buoyant lead single “Back in Love,” which Harper’s Bazaar declared “a super joyful track made for late summer nights dancing around with friends” and NYLON praised, “The instrumentation is grand, luscious, and builds a world that perfectly supports Waterhouse’s self-respecting, life-affirming lyrics.”
Loveland follows Suki’s sophomore album Memoir of a Sparklemuffin, which established her as an evocative storyteller, consummate creative, and a powerhouse live performer. The album was released to critical acclaim with Interview Magazine calling it “her most vulnerable body of work yet” to the Los Angeles Times praising how she “sparkles and shines” on the album, and SPIN hailing that it “marks an important milestone, solidifying her as an artist with a presence as enigmatic as it is captivating.” This summer, fans will get to hear Loveland live when Suki makes her return to the Lollapalooza stage in Chicago. Stay tuned for further tour dates.
