After having revellers enraptured and empowered last month at London’s Chaka Khan’s Meltdown Festival, Lady Blackbird today releases her stunning new track “Man On A Boat” from her forthcoming new studio album Slang Spirituals, out September 13th on BMG. Preview the song and video for “Man On A Boat” HERE.
Additionally, today Lady Blackbird announced an extension of her Los Angeles residency at The Sun Rose due to popular demand. Tickets are on-sale now for her dates on July 20, July 27, August 3, and August 9 on her site.
Through simply stunning finger-picking folk storytelling, “Man On A Boat” is about, as Lady Blackbird explains, “shedding and letting go in order to reclaim your personal freedom.” Featuring her sweeping, cinematic vocal power, and written with longtime producer Chris Seefried, this deeply vulnerable track is intimate and hopeful, echoing the album’s themes of finding one’s true identity.
Collaborating once again with Black Acid Soul producer Seefried, the pair produce a second album that not only embodies the freewheeling, emotive Lady Blackbird sound, but that also taps into deeply vulnerable lyrics that recount the singer’s challenging ascent to musical stardom.
Lady Blackbird’s debut album Black Acid Soul garnered 5-star reviews and won unanimous praise globally. Without doubt, her appearance on the UK’s “Graham Norton Show” had the country captivated and Taylor Swift lost for superlatives.
Watch HERE.
“This is my journey of becoming,” she concludes. “It’s me rewriting the book to show the world who I truly am. From being labelled a sinner to finding my freedom.”
