Singer-songwriter Rose Elinor Dougall recently announced that she’ll be releasing her new album Stellular on 20th January 2017 via Vermilion Records. It is, in her own words, “something bolder, less apologetic, more decisive […] a sophisticated pop record.” The LP has apparently been shaped by the experiences of Dougall and her friends as they navigated through their 20s, struggling with broken hearts and more within the capital.
Dougall says of the album: “The last decade in this country has been a really fucking weird time to be young. There’s a theme of promises that are falling apart, and negotiating the wreckage of choices you might make that actually start to become less flippant and do have long-standing effects on your future […] I want it to be human, I want it to be honest. There’s always going to be artifice within these things, but even just one line in one song can find the kernel of something more.”
Dougall has also shared a new video for the title track, which sees her going on a journey through the darkness in search of light. She says: “I was thinking about some people I knew that were struggling to get a break […] Thinking about the endurance test I was witnessing for others… waiting for something to change.” Watch below.
