Weyes Blood has shared a song from her new album And in the Darkness, Hearts Aglow. It’s called “Grapevine,” and you can listen to it below.
“Grapevine” is a road song set along the titular stretch of Southern California’s Interstate 5. “Technology is harvesting our attention away from each other,” Natalie Mering said of the track in press materials. “We all have a ‘Grapevine’ entwined around our past with unresolved wounds and pain. Being in love doesn’t necessarily mean being together. Why else do so many love songs yearn for a connection?”
And in the Darkness, Hearts Aglow is out November 18 via Sub Pop. Mering announced the record last month with the release of “It’s Not Just Me, It’s Everybody,” as well as an extensive 2023 tour. She followed that with a music video for the track directed by Charlotte Ercoli.
The new album was co-produced by Mering and Foxygen’s Jonathan Rado. It marks the second LP in a proposed trilogy that began with 2019’s Titanic Rising. Mering enlisted a string of collaborators on the 10-track LP, including Meg Duffy, Daniel Lopatin, and Mary Lattimore.
