Rachel Chinouriri announces debut album 'What A Devastating Turn Of Events'

Having already cemented herself as one of the more exciting names on the rise these last few years, Rachel Chinouriri has now announced her plans for her long-awaited debut album, set to arrive later this year.

The new full-length 'What A Devastating Turn Of Events' is being previewed by the new lead single 'Never Need Me', which comes accompanied by a Florence Pugh-starring video, and is set to be released on the 3rd May via Elektra.

Speaking about the new record, she said, “It’s finally here. The moment most musicians dream of when they’re a child. I can’t believe it’s real in a way, but I’m proud of it. What A Devastating Turn Of Events should feel like discovering a personal journey of all the hardship and struggles that have ultimately made me the person I am today. I was lost when I first made this album, when I felt so lost within myself but also in London. I was on a search to find myself and I can say I’ve managed to do that by the end of this process and have found a love for myself that I never thought was possible. I feel fortunate enough to be able to document that process and have it in physical form and sound. Hopefully it’ll help other people realize that it takes tough times, self accountability, betrayal and uncomfortable moments to finally get to a point of true self love. I’m more than ready for the next chapter.”
