Torres has released a new single called I Got The Fear.
Framed around a gently strummed guitar, underpinned by electronic percussion, it marks the second preview of Mackenzie Scott's new album, 'What An Enormous Room', due out on January 26. Head here to listen to the previously shared cut Collect.
Co-produced by Scott and Sarah Jaffe, the sombre new offering finds the American singer-songwriter reflecting on her battles with anxiety and depression. Torres said:
"A collective dread has been mounting. Everyone I know is having a brawl with the universe, with themselves…wars, climate catastrophe, a pandemic, the worldwide regression on human rights, the political hellscape — it affects everybody, and I know we’re all feeling it in waves of varying degree all the time."
She added: "I think it’s really important that we find a way to get our hopes back up. I’m here to try to help light the way if I can. Most days I really believe humanity will find a way. But there’s a nagging anxiety that maybe that won’t happen. One has to wonder if it’s a self-fulfilling prophecy that a species that believes it’s doomed will doom itself."
Torres will support the follow-up to 2021's 'Thirstier' with 2024 tour dates in the US, UK and Europe. Tickets are on sale now.
