Jamila Woods has announced a new album, Water Made Us, which will be released October 13 via Jagjaguwar. Leading the follow-up to 2019’s Legacy! Legacy! is ‘Tiny Garden’, which features duendita and was produced with Wynne Bennet. Check out a video it below, and scroll down for the album’s cover artwork and tracklist.
“Water Made Us feels like the most personal and vulnerable piece of art I’ve ever made. I love creating from source material, diving deep into a subject and extrapolating from what I discover,” Woods said in a statement. “We sat in the house for 2 years and I became my own source material. Shout out to the therapists, the astrologers, the family members and friends who listened, who helped me process and transform my journaled thoughts and questions into this body of work. I hope it feels like a playlist that carries you through the life cycle of a relationship, whatever stage of the journey your heart may be in.”
“’Tiny Garden’ is a song about the way my heart works, the slow and steady way I love,” Woods explained. “In my directorial debut I wanted to create a visual representation of how I often feel in relationships, like I’m having huge feelings that I end up expressing in small specific ways.”
