Keeley Forsyth returns with sweeping new single ‘Bring Me Water’, with new album Limbs to follow on February 25th. It is accompanied by a beautiful monochrome video directed by Ross Downes and featuring dancer and choreographer Calvin Richardson of the Royal Ballet.
“The song picks up where ‘Start Again’, the final track on Debris, left off,” Forsyth explains. “It comes from a similar place, approached at a different angle, with the line ‘let me begin again’ central to that. It plots a journey from a place of darkness, but marks the point at which we choose to grow. Bring me water. Give me light. These are the basic things required to start that process.”
Forsyth’s 2020 debut album found an elemental voice ringing out from beneath the rubble. Understated but devastating, Debris’ success led to a transformation as the songs were brought to the stage. An innate performer, Forsyth found herself channelling something she hadn’t yet fully come to understand, and it was here that the voice on Debris began to probe outwards and discover a physical form. It’s a form that fully takes shape on her second album Limbs.
Limbs is available to pre-order now on CD, digital, limited edition white vinyl LP and black vinyl LP. In addition, the blood red vinyl Dinked Edition with alternate sleeve and photobook is available to pre-order from select UK independent record shops. The album will be released worldwide digitally on February 25th, with CDs and LPs in shops in the UK and Europe on the same day. The physical release date for the rest of the world is April 29th.
Forsyth has a short run of UK dates in the spring, which culminates with her biggest show yet at The Barbican’s Milton Court venue on March 11th.
