Flock of Dimes unveils new cut "Price of Blue"
After announcing her second album Head of Roses earlier this month, Flock of Dimes, aka Wye Oak's Jenn Wasner, has released "Price of Blue" as the second taster of the album.
Wasner announced Head of Roses at the start of February with lead single "Two", and has today (25 February) returned with the album's second single "Price of Blue".
She says of her latest outing, "This song is about trying, and failing, to connect. It’s about the ways in which, despite our best efforts, we misunderstand each other, and become so attached to stories that we’re unable to see the truth that’s right in front of us. And it’s about the invisible mark that another person can leave on your body, heart and mind long after their absence. It can be difficult to make sense of the memory of your experience when the reality on the surface is always shifting - when the story you’re telling, or the story you’ve been told, unravels, leaving you with a handful of pieces and no idea how they used to fit together."
Head of Roses will follow Flock of Dimes' 2016 debut album If You See Me, Say Yes, and marks Wasner's first solo album since signing to Sub Pop last year.
Wasner says of the new album, "I think I’ve finally reached a point in my career where I feel comfortable enough with myself and what I do, that I’m able to relax into a certain simplicity or straight forwardness that I wasn’t comfortable with before."
The album was produced by Nick Sanborn (Sylvan Esso) and Wasner at Betty’s in Chapel Hill, NC, and features contributions from guitarist Meg Duffy, Bon Iver’s Matt McCaughan, Wye Oak’s Andy Stack, and Landlady’s Adam Schatz.
