Ladyhawke Announces New Album Out Oct. 8

Pip Brown's incredible knack for a catchy pop hook coupled with an 80s rock chic ambiance has been widely revered since releasing her early singles as Ladyhawke in 2008. She recently released teaser single "Guilty Love" featuring BROODS which harnesses the classic Ladyhawke sound, promising more exciting guitar-pop gems to come. Life-altering experiences paired with the ten-year anniversary of Ladyhawke's self-titled debut full-length fed into a sense of nostalgia and reflection while working on her brand new album, Time Flies, announced today alongside electrifying new single "Mixed Emotions".

Pip shares: "Mixed Emotions was written with old mates Jono Sloan and Nick Littlemore while I was on a writing trip in LA. Sloan had come up with a really cool bass groove which Nick and I riffed over to get the lyrics and melody. The song is about all the things you can feel with one person, sometimes all in a single day. Up's and downs, confusion, highs and lows. And everything in between!"

Time Flies, due out October 8 on BMG, is an extraordinary collection that fuses intimate subject matter and upbeat guitar-led rock with irresistibly catchy electronic elements. In the half decade since her acclaimed 2016 album Wild Things, Pip has gone through a personal transformation. She married New Zealand actress/director/comedian Madeleine Sami and gave birth to their beautiful daughter in late 2017. Having always been a keen gamer, she also joined Twitch during the lockdown and found new friends as well as a sense of community and inspiration.

Pip has openly struggled with mental health, anxiety and depression for a long time and, after dealing with severe postnatal depression + a serious skin cancer condition which has thankfully seen a full recovery, was able to successfully procure the right balance of therapy & medication which is so individually specific. When she embarked on writing songs for this new record in 2019, there was a sense of freedom in the work. "I was feeling pretty grateful to be alive and making music, so I felt like I didn't 'care' anymore - not in a bad way, I just stopped overthinking it."

Stay tuned for more news from Ladyhawke coming soon!
