Madi Diaz has announced her next album: History of a Feeling arrives August 27 via ANTI-. Today’s announcement comes with the release of a new single, ‘Woman In My Heart’, alongside an accompanying video. Check out the clip, directed by Diaz and Jordan Bellamy, below, and scroll down for the album’s cover artwork and tracklist.
‘Woman In My Heart’ follows the previously released singles ‘Nervous’, ‘New Person, Old Place’, and ‘Man In Me’. “This song came out in a sort of waking dream while I was actively learning how to part with someone,” Diaz explained in a statement. “It was hard enough not to miss/hurt/hate/fight/fuck/feel/get over them, and, what was even harder, was the love we had felt more and more like a mystery and the pain was the only thing coming in clear.”
Of the new album, which was produced in part by Big Thief collaborator Andrew Sarlo, she added: “The bulk of this music came from dealing with a kind of tsunami clash of compassion, both for my former partner while she was discovering a deeper part of her gender identity long hidden, and my own raw heartache over having lost the partner I knew. I felt so torn through the middle because half of me wanted to hold this person through such a major life event, one that is so beautiful and hard, and the other half felt lost—like I had lost myself in someone else’s story.”
