Billie Marten returns with new single 'Crown'

Following on from her highly-praised studio album 'Drop Cherries' last year, Billie Marten has now returned to share a brand new single.

The new track 'Crown' marks her first piece of new material so far this year, and was recorded this summer with Philip Weinrobe (Adrianne Lenker, Cass McCombs, Tomberlin) in Brooklyn, NY.

Speaking about the new offering, she said, "I wrote this in my garden last summer while staring at my cat sitting peacefully in the shade. It’s a song of longing, of accepting who you are, a truthful interlude.

“We made this song in what felt like an instant, elbow to elbow, circled up, delicately listening to each other breathe, and sing, and play. Honestly magical. I wish you could have been there. Thank god we recorded it," says Weinrobe. “Immaculate players came together to make a completely live recording - the only overdubs on this were Núria Graham’s harmonies and Mauro Refosco (David Byrne) on his triangle."
