Ada Lea has announced her next album: the follow-up to 2019’s what we say in private is called one hand on the steering wheel the other sewing a garden, and it’s out September 24 via Saddle Creek. To accompany the announcement, Ada Lea has today shared a new song, ‘damn’, alongside a music video directed by Monse Muro. Check it out and find the album’s cover artwork and tracklist below.
The new album is set in Alexandra Levy’s hometown of Montreal, with each song existing as “a dot on a personal history map of the city where Levy grew up,” according to a press release. It was recorded with producer and Phoebe Bridgers collaborator Marshall Vore, who had previously worked on Lea’s 2020 EP woman, here. “Marshall’s expertise and experience with drumming and songwriting was the perfect blend for what the songs needed,” Levy said in a statement. “He was able to support me in a harmonic, lyrical, and rhythmic sense.”
Last month, Ada Lea released the album single ‘hurt’, which made our Best New Songs list.
