Pale Waves have unveiled a new single "Gravity", which is the third track to be shared from their forthcoming album, Smitten.
"Gravity" finds frontwoman Heather Baron-Gracie lamenting being yanked in different directions by a lover who can’t choose between their relationship or her religion. Speaking about the track, she notes: “Gravity is about a woman who chose Jesus over me. It took the longest of all of the songs on the album to finish, I think we must have rewritten it millions of times to get it to where it is now.”
Smitten, is due for release on 20 September via Dirty Hit, and is available to pre-order now.
