Wallis Bird announces new album "Woman" + releases first single

WALLIS BIRD ANNOUNCES NEW ALBUM WOMAN VIA ANTIFRAGILE OUT SEPT 27

RELEASES FIRST SINGLE “AS THE RIVER FLOWS” + VIDEO

Wallis Bird has announced her new album Woman (AntiFragile) and shared the first single “As The River Flows” with the accompanying music video. Woman is due out on September 27.

Ask Wallis Bird what changes she’s experienced since 2016’s Home, her last album, and she’ll offer a list. “Well, the world’s changed a lot,” she’ll begin, “and I’ve changed with it. The #MeToo movement, ‘Repeal The 8th’, marriage equality in Australia, ‘Black Lives Matter’, Trump, Brexit, the rise of racism, the death of countless musical icons, the environmental crisis… And,” she’ll add, wryly, “I’m 36 now, so I’m officially a woman…!”

At Woman’s heart lies the concurrent urge to tackle injustice and celebrate the good in human nature, themes demanding immediate attention. “I want more empathy in the world around me,” she concludes, “so I’ve started by writing it into my life. I want to fill rooms with these words. I want to hear these sentiments uttered out loud, and for people to get used to hearing themselves say them. Ultimately, I want these words written into their lives.”

And thus, an age-old proverb is once again validated: no matter how hard they try, you cannot keep a good Woman down.
