Billie Eilish announces her third studio album, HIT ME HARD AND SOFT
Billie Eilish has just announced her forthcoming studio album, HIT ME HARD AND SOFT.
Taking to social media, after adding all of her followers to her Close Friends story on Instagram as a teaser, Billie Eilish has announced the follow-up to 2021's Happier Than Ever, which followed the success of her 2019 debut, WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?. Back in February, she announced that the album was complete, writing: “My album is mastered". Her second album was nominated for seven Grammy Awards in 2022, including Album of the Year, Best Pop Vocal Album, Song of the Year and Record of the Year.
Now she has taken to Instagram to announce her third studio album. "so crazy to be writing this right now i’m nervyyyyy & exciteddd not doing singles i wanna give it to you all at once :PPP finneas and i truly could not be more proud of this album and we absolutely can’t wait for you to hear it. love you love you love you."
HIT ME HARD AND SOFT was written by Billie Eilish and FINNEAS, her brother and long-time collaborator, who also produced the album. HIT ME HARD AND SOFT will be available on all digital platforms, and in a continued effort to minimize waste and combat climate change; across all physical formats in limited variants on the same day, with the same track-listing and using 100% recyclable materials.
