Hatchie, the moniker of Australian singer-songwriter Harriette Pilbeam, has signed to Secretly Canadian. Along with today’s announcement, she’s shared a video for the new single ‘This Enchanted’, her first new music since her 2019 debut album Keepsake. Check it out below.
“‘This Enchanted’ encapsulates everything I wanted to do moving forward from my first album,” Hatchie said in a press release. “I started writing it with [producer Jorge Elbrecht] and [guitarist Joe Agius] in February 2020 and completed it from afar in lockdown later in the year. We had been talking about making something dancey but shoegaze.”
She added: “It’s one of the more lighthearted, lyrically vague songs of my new recordings about falling in love; it’s not a perfect relationship, but you’re enthralled by one another and it’s an easy love. It’s one of the most fun songs I’ve written, so it was a no-brainer to pick it as my first solo release in almost two years. It feels so right to be working with a label as exciting as Secretly as I step into new territory with Hatchie. I’ve been counting down the days until its release for a long time.”
The Nowhere Inn, the new mockumentary starring St. Vincent and Carrie Brownstein, is being released on Friday (September 17). Ahead of its arrival, Annie Clark, who also did the soundtrack for the film, has shared a new song called ‘The Nowhere Inn’, alongside a video directed by Nowhere Inn director Bill Benz. Check it out below.
St. Vincent issued her latest album, Daddy’s Home, earlier this year. The soundtrack for The Nowhere Inn comes out September 19.
Marissa Nadler has released a new song called ‘If I Could Breathe Underwater’. The track is lifted from her upcoming LP Path of the Clouds, which was announced last month with the single ‘Bessie, Did You Make It?’. Check out the music video for ‘If I Could Breathe Underwater’, directed by Jenni Hensler, below.
“When I wrote ‘If I Could Breathe Underwater,’ I was contemplating the possibilities of possessing various superhuman powers: teleportation, shapeshifting, energy projection, aquatic breathing, extrasensory perception, and time travel to name a few,” Nadler explained in a statement. “As a lyrical device, I married those powers with events in my life, wondering if and how they could change the past or predict the future. I loved working on the melody for this song and bringing the choruses to their climaxes. Mary’s layered, hallucinatory shimmers really echo the netherworld of the story.”
Hensler added: “This song took on many meanings to me and I love that about it. How beauty and tragedy collide. Dreaming of having supernatural powers to change reality and have the ability to live and breathe underwater. It could also speak to the duality of existence. That we all have inner personas or shadow selves, and how we envision those different masks we wear. I chose to make something that touched on the idea of duality and the inner persona. To connect to the two worlds.”
My Morning Jacket have shared a new single, ‘Love Love Love’, alongside an accompanying video. The track is the second offering from the band’s upcoming self-titled album, following last month’s ‘Regularly Scheduled Programming’. Check out the visual, co-directed by frontman Jim James and George Mays, below.
“‘Love Love Love’ is trying to steer the ship away from everything I’m talking about in ‘Regularly Scheduled Programming’ and speak toward positivity and pure love, finding truth within yourself and in the world around you,” James said in a statement.
My Morning Jacket, the follow-up to last year’s The Waterfall II, lands October 22 via ATO.
Coco have shared a new single from their forthcoming self-titled debut album. It’s called ‘Come Along’, and it comes with an accompanying video. Check it out below.
“The skeleton of ‘Come Along’ was recorded live, all together, with Oliver on guitar, Maia on drums, and Danny on bass,” Coco stated in a press release. “The underlying chord loop plays throughout as other instruments are weaved in one by one, picking up momentum and rolling forward as everything joins in harmony.”
Of the video, they added: “The video mimics the song in this way, portraying our individual days-in-the-life with each of us filming one another on handheld camcorders. The day culminates in our first performance together as Coco, at a house show in Oliver’s garage with our friends as backing band. When it all came together we were pleased with the juxtaposition of the comically low fidelity and fast-paced editing, like a homemade action movie.”
Coco’s self-titled debut is set to arrive on October 29 via First City Artists. The band – composed of Maia Friedman (of Dirty Projectors, Uni Ika Ai), Dan Molad (of Lucius, Chimney), and Oliver Hill (of Pavo Pavo, Dustrider) – announced the album with the single ‘Knots’.
Lunar Vacation have previewed their upcoming debut album, Inside Every Fig Is a Dead Wasp, with a new single called ‘Gears’. The track comes with an accompanying Nosferatu-inspired video starring songwriter/vocalist/guitarist Grace Repasky. Check it out below.
“When I look back on any kind of relationship, it’s usually through rose-coloured glasses. I guess this song tells me that although this happened, you just gotta keep going because this isn’t the end of the world,” Repasky explained in a press release. “But the last lines are a reflection of how inner-me feels… I’ll probably always be a little sad about the loss. I feel like most, if not all, of my songs are future-me giving past-me advice and insight on specific situations that evoked heavy feelings.”
Maggie Geeslin commented on the video: “We shot this all in a few hours one evening. Nearly all of our neighbors saw Grace lurking in the parking lot and got a good scare. Everyone, including our little crew, seemed simultaneously horrified and amused by Grace’s character. We want everyone to feel a little confused, a little scared, and a little funny after watching this video.”
Lunar Vacation have also today announced a run of 2022 tour dates across North America and Europe; find the list of dates below.
Inside Every Fig Is A Dead Wasp is set for release on October 29 via Keeled Scales. Lunar Vacation previously shared the album tracks ‘Shrug’ and ‘Mold’.

Sam Evian has unveiled the title track of his forthcoming album, Time to Melt. The single arrives with an accompanying video directed by John TerEick and filmed in the woods surrounding Evian’s home. Watch and listen below.
“If you’re familiar with tarot, I think of it as pulling the death card in a positive way,” Evian said of the song in a statement. “It’s like facing the idea of death, which I think everyone thought about a lot this past year, maybe more than usual collectively.”
Of the video, he added: “I met a lonely alien in the woods and they taught me a jig. As the night went on they convinced me to try huffing some special kind of bug spray, which opened a wormhole vortex to another dimension.”
Oneohtrix Point Never has announced a new expanded Blu-ray edition of his most recent album, last year’s Magic Oneohtrix Point Never. In addition to the previously released rework of ‘Nothing Special’ featuring Rosalía, the Blu-ray edition, which arrives October 29, will include an alternate take of ‘Lost But Never Alone’ by Oneohtrix Point Never and A. G. Cook and a new version of ‘Tales From The Trash Stratum’ featuring new vocals from the Cocteau Twins’ Elizabeth Fraser, the latter of which is out today. Check it out below, alongside an accompanying visual.
Body/Heat, the duo of Kim Gordon and Bill Nace, have announced a new collaborative album with experimental musician Aaron Dilloway. Body/Dilloway/Head‘s self-titled album is out November 19 via Three Lobed. Below, listen to the new single ‘Goin’ Down’ check out the LP’s cover artwork and tracklist.
Body/Dilloway/Head will follow Body/Head’s 2018 album The Switch. “One of the things I like most about playing improvised music and especially in Body/Head with Bill is the constantly exhilarating freedom and surprise about what is going to happen at any given moment,” Kim Gordon said in a statement. “Making this record with Aaron Dilloway, who I have always admired so much, added in another layer of unknown and another way of giving up control. Aaron took our sounds / music as a source and had ‘his way with it’ so to speak, crushing whatever narrative that existed in order to enter into it and making something different than what we would have done as Body/Head.”
