Half Waif presents new single, "The Museum"
Half Waif has shared "The Museum" as the latest single from her forthcoming album, See You At The Maypole, and has also announced new UK and European live dates for early next year.
“There’s a warehouse at the top of Main Street in my tiny town that’s being turned into a museum for Shaker art,” Rose described when discussing the song’s meaning. “It’s just down the road from my house, so I pass by it all the time. When I wrote ‘The Museum,’ I was thinking about how sort of beautifully delusional it is to create a museum at a time when the world is reaching the apex of climate crisis. This idea of preserving pieces of furniture in a pristine, white-walled space when outside, everything is collapsing.”
She continued, adding: “I’d also read a headline about how people were vacationing in Iceland at an active volcano, and that seemed to hold the same feeling for me as the museum-under-construction. Tourism at the brink of apocalypse. Meanwhile, my husband and I were talking about building a family, building a future, and I was grappling with the responsibility of what it means to bring a child into this kind of world—where people pose for selfies while the earth explodes.”
In February 2025, Half Waif will visit Europe for a string of shows in Berlin, Amsterdam, Antwerp, Paris, and London.
See You At The Maypole is set for release on October 4th via ANTI-, and is available to pre-order now. For more information on the live dates, visit halfwaif.com.
