Lifted from her forthcoming LP.
Lianne La Havas has shared a new single, premiered through Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 radio show.
A soulful exercise in downtempo groove and sparse arrangement that allows vocals to hypnotise and soar, hear ‘Paper Thin’ below.
Lifted alongside the previously heard ‘Bittersweet‘ from her forthcoming third album, La Havas’ latest full length project will release on July 17th.
Discussing the themes of the album, La Havas states
“What plays a big role in the album is the idea of the life cycle of plants and nature—equating this journey with a seasonal thing that blooms, thrives, goes away, and comes back even stronger.”
