MICHELLE announce forthcoming album, Songs About You Specifically
MICHELLE have announced their forthcoming new album Songs About You Specifically, alongside the new single “Oontz”.
While writing their new album MICHELLE decided to rent out a house in Ojai, California, which shifted the tone of their work.
The months they spent touring, as well as the experience of living together in Ojai, fostered new bonds between the band. “There are friends I've had for almost my whole life who I won't know as intimately as I know members of this group,” Emma Lee says. “There isn't really an opportunity for that in any other kind of relationship in your life.” The sense of trust and comfort they fostered with each other allowed them to be more candid and vulnerable in their songwriting too. “It’s so easy to write a generic love or breakup song,” Julian Kaufman says. “But many of these stories are true. We’re coming from a really honest place.”
The new album follows their GLOW EP and critically acclaimed albums AFTER DINNER WE TALK DREAMS and HEATWAVE.
