Big Thief songwriter and lead vocalist Adrianne Lenker has released a new song from her next album, “Ruined.” The track arrives with a music video directed by Lenker’s brother, Noah Lenker. Check it out below.
In a statement, Lenker shared of “Ruined”: “This song has been a quiet beacon for me. It may contain the essence of the gift of romantic love but it’s mostly about something much bigger.”
Lenker also announced a series of tour dates in United Kingdom and Europe next year, beginning with a show in Galway, Ireland, on April 19. Nick Hakim, Twain, and Ellie O’Neill will each be supporting at select dates. See a full itinerary below.
Lenker released Songs and Instrumentals in 2020. A press release promises her new album will arrive in 2024.
