Helen Ballentine has released the latest single from her upcoming Skullcrusher LP, And Your Song Is Like a Circle. The softly ethereal ‘Living’ follows previous cuts ‘Exhale’, ‘March’, and ‘Dragon’. Check it out below, along with a live performance video.
“One day, I was wandering around Brooklyn, and I felt like I was watching everything through a window or on a screen,” Ballentine said in a statement. “I felt like everyone was moving so fluidly and certainly like moving through a piece of choreography. ‘Living’ is about being a voyeur, catching a glimpse of brief moments of people’s lives. Like watching a play through a small peep hole, or through the slit of a curtain. I wonder if I am the same. If my life feels a part of this production or if it exists in a small detail somewhere off stage.”
And Your Song Is Like a Circle is is due October 17 via Dirty Hit. Revisit our Artist Spotlight interview with Skullcrusher.
