Stella Donnelly has announced her new album, Love and Fortune, which arrives November 7 via Brace Yourself Records/Dot Dash Recordings. The follow-up to 2022’s Flood includes the early tracks ‘Baths’ and ‘Standing Ovation’, as well as the new track ‘Feel It Change’, which gently gnaws at the dissolution of a relationship. Check it out below.
“I wrote this song on a baritone guitar in the shed of my sharehouse, plugged into all of my housemate’s overdrive pedals,” Donnelly said of ‘Feel It Change’ in a statement. “I think the neighbours started getting shitty after a while because I stewed on the same chords for ages. It’s about the rumination of slowly peeling off the band-aid of a relationship that was doomed to fall apart. Trying to capture that phase of a break up where all you do is bristle and fizz in resentment and finger pointing.”
Donnelly wrote, performed, and produced Love and Fortune, which features additional production by Julia Wallace and Ellie Mason as well as performances by Wallace, Marcel Tussie, Jack Gaby, Sophie Ozard, and Timothy Harvey.
