Bedouine announces third album with lead single "The Wave"
Bedouine, real name Azniv Korkejian, is back with news of her third album Waysides, and has released new single "The Wave" to accompany the announcement.
"The Wave" is Bedouine's first outing from Waysides, and follows last year's cover of Big Star's "Thirteen" with Waxahatchee, and Hurray for the Riff Raff.
Pitchfork reports that Korkejian said of the new single, "I wrote this about the loss of a close friend, specifically the swell of emotion I try to resign myself to when thinking of her premature absence. She was someone who had an uncomplicated relationship with life and living. I often wondered ‘Why her and not me?’ I was trying to practice the things I was learning, to surrender to the fear and the grief...and the fear of grief. I haven’t entirely worked through it. Writing "The Wave" was a reminder to feel my feelings. At a time of such collective loss I imagine there are people out there that could relate. It feels cathartic to share."
Waysides will follow Bedouine's 2019 second album Bird Songs of a Killjoy.
