潘PAN announces new album, Pan The Pansexual

The album announcement is accompanied by the brand new single, "Imperfect Poetry". Speaking about the release, Pan explains: “It’s a monologue of a young and not so experienced witch, who doesn’t always do all her magic and alchemy right. Longing for love, she practises expressing her fear and needs through poetry, eventually turning it into spells. The bright and catchy sounds float around and lift up the message, uniting any listening soul into a groovy unity.”

Working with Grimes - a fellow self-taught female artist who produces and engineers everything herself - was the confidence booster that Pan needed. “If you’ve got ears and you’ve got a desire to express, then you can learn all the things from Youtube - it’s not just limited to men,” she says. “I can learn that and I can do what I want, I just need to do the work.” And so, for the past half decade, Pan has been doing exactly that.

Pan The Pansexual closely follows the release of two recent EPs Reborn and Ghosts, which was Pan’s first new music in seven years.

Across the releases, confident sexual expression mixes with tenderness, empathy and a particularly feminine sort of strength to create a world that Pan hopes will transcend language and connect her audience via something more innate. “The message that I want to carry through these two EPs and the album is to demonstrate the strength of accepting your own situations. When you can’t make things right but you’ve done your best, sometimes it’s really hard to admit that to yourself. It takes strength to do that. I use lots of sexual metaphors, but I feel like it’s more about the female need to be seen and heard. I want to build something more delicate and layered and connected to our life experience - to the trauma and the pleasure and the growth.”
