Adrianne Lenker, the spellbinding vocalist of Big Thief, captivates once again with her latest single ‘Fool’, offering a glimpse into her upcoming album ‘Bright Future’, set for release on 22 March. The song, adorned with bent, plucked, and trembling strings, navigates the complexities of love and indecision, evoking a sense of introspection and longing. Accompanied by a poignant video directed by her brother Noah Lenker, ‘Fool’ showcases Lenker’s ability to craft raw and emotive narratives that resonate deeply with listeners.
In ‘Fool’, Lenker delves into the intricacies of human relationships, pondering the prospect of second chances and the fear of missed opportunities. Producer Philip Weinrobe highlights the palpable joy in Lenker’s performance, reflecting the song’s themes of longing and acceptance. Recorded during a golden season at the forest-hidden studio, Double Infinity, ‘Fool’ captures a moment of musical camaraderie and emotional vulnerability.
‘Bright Future’ marks Lenker’s highly anticipated return since her 2020 album ‘songs & instrumentals’. Co-produced by Weinrobe and featuring collaborations with Nick Hakim, Mat Davidson, and Josefin Runsteen, the album is a testament to Lenker’s evolution as an artist. Drawing inspiration from her surroundings and personal experiences, Lenker’s modern melodies and poetic lyricism create a timeless sonic landscape.
As Lenker prepares to embark on a European and North American tour, fans eagerly anticipate the opportunity to experience her mesmerizing performances live. With a schedule spanning from intimate venues to renowned festivals, Lenker’s tour promises to be a celebration of music and connection.
