James Blake has shared another single from his upcoming seventh album.
Built on soft piano and the two-time Grammy-winner's haunting falsetto vocals, I Had A Dream She Took My Hand arrives alongside a live performance video directed by Harrison and Adair. Delivering his signature hushed, introspective sound, it marks the second preview of 'Trying Times', due out on March 13. Blake introduced the record last month alongside the release of its first single, Death of Love.
The singer-songwriter and producer will support the follow-up to 2023's ‘Playing Robots Into Heaven’ with the Trying Times Tour across North America in May and June, with tickets going on general sale at 10am next Friday (February 20). Announcing the dates, he said:
"I’m very happy to announce the Trying Times North America Tour. It’s my favourite record I’ve ever made, and we have a brand new set up. It really is the most excited I’ve been to play shows in a long time. For those that aren’t in the US - we’ll have some news for you very soon."
Since his last album, Blake put out a collaborative record with Lil Yachty titled 'Bad Cameo' in 2024, the same year he dropped his 'CMYK 002' EP.
