Gordi previews new LP with fourth single "Unready"
Gordi is back with new single "Unready", a fourth taster of her forthcoming Our Two Skins album due for release later this month.
"Unready" arrives after earlier singles "Volcanic", "Aeroplane Bathroom" and "Sandwiches", and will see Gordi donate all of the proceeds from the new single made from Bandcamp sales in June to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund and North Australian Aboriginal Justice Agency.
Our Two Skins will follow on from 2017's Reservoir, and saw Gordi recruit producers Chris Messina (Bon Iver, Bruce Hornsby, Big Red Machine) and Zach Hanson (Bon Iver, Hand Habits, Waxahatchee, Tallest Man), who travelled from Wisconsin to Canowindral, Australia to record the album with Gordi at a old cottage with no wi-fi or phone service.
Sophie Payten, aka Gordi, says of the process, "The idea was about cutting ourselves off from all things, including choice, and forcing us to be a lot more minimalist in the way that we can create stuff. I find I'm much more creative when I'm surrounded by nothing than when I'm surrounded by lots."
She adds of the LP, "A big theme of the record is: there's nothing to hide behind. We didn't have all the bells and whistles. You’re just standing there, with your hands in your pockets going: this is me. This is it. This is all I have."
