Artist News Gigs & Festivals One Liners Releases
One Liners: Miley Cyrus, Paramore, Sam Smith, more
By Andy Malt | Published on Friday 13 January 2023
RELEASES
Miley Cyrus has released new single ‘Flowers’. She announced earlier this week that her eighth studio album, ‘Endless Vacation’, will be out on 10 Mar.
Paramore have released new single ‘C’est Comme Ça’. “I’m trying to get un-addicted to a survival narrative”, says vocalist Hayley Williams. “The idea of imminent doom is less catastrophic to me than not knowing anything about the future or my part in it. The guys and I are all in much more stable places in our lives than ever before. And somehow that is harder for me to adjust to”. The band’s new album, ‘This Is Why’, is out on 10 Feb.
Sam Smith has released new single ‘Gimme’, featuring Jessie Reyez and Koffee. “Me and Jessie were basically drunk, drinking whisky in Jamaica, two in the morning, running around, like two girlfriends having a laugh”, says Smith of the recording. “It’s a very sensual song”.
Ava Max has released new single ‘One Of Us’. Her new album, ‘Diamonds & Dancefloors’, is out on 27 Jan.
Black Thought has announced his latest collaborative project, an album with the band El Michels Affair, which will be released on 14 Apr. From it, this is first single ‘Grateful’.
Radiohead’s Philip Selway has released new solo single ‘Picking Up The Pieces’. His new solo album, ‘Strange Dance’, is out on 24 Feb.
Yaeji has announced that she will release her debut album, ‘With A Hammer’, in April – the follow-up to 2020 mixtape ‘What We Drew’.
Fucked Up have released new single ‘I Might Be Weird’, taken from new album, ‘One Day’, which is out on 27 Jan. The band have also announced UK tour dates in March, finishing with a performance at Lafayette in London on 18 Mar.
Xiu Xiu have announced that they will release new album ‘Ignore Grief’ on 3 Mar. From it, this is new single ‘Maebae Baeby’. In that song “the singer’s viewpoint is of a young person hiding in a fantastical conversation with a tarantula in order to escape a physically abusive parent”, says frontman Jamie Stewart. “We were hiding within this fantasy of a fantasy, following the model of the late 1950s sub genre of ‘teen tragedy songs’, to try and find a way to come to terms with a number of staggeringly horrendous events that occurred to people close to the band over the last two years”.
Miss Grit has released new single ‘Lain (Phone Clone)’. “I feel like the divide between my inner and outer self can grow so big sometimes that it feels like I’m being eclipsed by this big cringey monster”, they say. “I wanted to write this to mock the monster and remind myself I’m not powerless against it”.
