JFDR returns with tender new track "Shimmer"
JFDR has returned with tender new track "Shimmer", a third taster of her forthcoming second album New Dreams.
"Shimmer" follows on from previous singles "My Work" and "Taking A Part Of Me".
JFDR, aka Jófríður Ákadóttir, says the new single is about "loving someone who is a bit broken."
New Dreams will follow on from 2017's Brazil. Ákadóttir adds of the new album, "This record is more thought out. The person who’s singing is more honest, not as ‘coated’ or ‘poetic’ as on Brazil. It’s less eloquent, perhaps, but more what’s happening for me right now. The meaning isn’t always revealed to me until afterwards."
The new record is co-produced by Ákadóttir and Josh Wilkinson, with mixing from Paul Corley (Sigur Rós, Yves Tumour, Tim Hecker).
