Fazerdaze – the moniker of Amelia Murray – has announced a new album called Soft Power. It’s slated for release on November 15 via section1/Partisan Records and Buttrfly Records in Australia/NZ. The lead single ‘Cherry Pie’ is out today alongside a video co-directed with Frances Carter. Check it out below.
“‘Cherry Pie’ began as lyrics on my phone during my first overseas trip to LA almost ten years ago,” Murray explained in a statement. “Now, at 31, this song has journeyed with me through many different versions of myself.”
“Frances and I crafted the video around a character who travels solo, letting go of what no longer serves her to finally take the wheel and steer into her next era,” Murray added.
Introducing the new album, which follows Fazerdaze’s 2017 debut Morningside and 2022’s Break EP, she said: “Welcome to Soft Power. This is what I created during the darkest, loneliest, most tumultuous years of my life—entering womanhood, navigating the world, the music industry, and what I thought was love. In my scariest moments, this album was my anchor for hope, purpose, and light. I am so relieved and content to finally share Soft Power with you.”
