Annie Hart unveils tender new track "Don't Breathe For Me"

25 November 2019, 16:15 | Written by Cerys Kenneally

Annie Hart is back with new track "Don't Breathe For Me", the second single to be shared from her forthcoming second solo album A Softer Offering.

"Don't Breathe For Me" arrives after "Wilderness Hill" that landed earlier this month.

According to Brooklyn Vegan, Hart says the new single is "about having the strength to move on from a difficult time."

Hart's new album A Softer Offering will be her first since 2017's debut solo LP Impossible Accomplice.

The former Au Revoir Simone member says of her new album, "I wanted to give listeners that chance to breathe, to relax. A soundtrack for painting or lying in the grass. I thought a lot about what music I play for myself when I want to make a moment feel complete. There’s just something different when you play soft music during these ordinary spaces in life, and I wanted to make a soundtrack for that. Sounds that undulate in minimal movement, that you can pay very close attention to, or leave space around if you need to have your own thoughts. I hope this record helps stretch those unfortunately rare times in our lives when we have moments to be peaceful."

The new album includes vocal contributions by Madeline Kenney. It was partly mixed by Jorge Elbrect (Sky Ferreira, Japanese Breakfast, Ariel Pink) and Justin Pizzoferrato (Sebadoh, Pixies, J Mascis), and mastered by April Golden (Sharon Jones, Antibalas).

"Don't Breathe For Me" is out now. Annie Hart's A Softer Offering album is released 13 December, and is available to pre-order now.
