Stella Donnelly is set to release her new album ‘Love and Fortune’ on 7th November via Brace Yourself Records in the UK and Europe (Dot Dash Recordings for the rest of the world).
Alongside the announcement, she has shared a new single, ‘Feel It Change’, which premiered on Huw Stephens’ BBC 6 Music show and follows last month’s double A-side ‘Baths’/’Standing Ovation’.
Speaking about ‘Feel It Change’, Donnelly says, “I wrote this song on a baritone guitar in the shed of my sharehouse, plugged into all of my housemate’s overdrive pedals. I think the neighbours started getting shitty after a while because I stewed on the same chords for ages. It’s about the rumination of slowly peeling off the band-aid of a relationship that was doomed to fall apart. Trying to capture that phase of a break up where all you do is bristle and fizz in resentment and finger pointing.”
Discussing the wider album, she adds, “These songs wouldn’t leave me alone. Like seagulls, they screamed at me when I rode to work, they pecked at me while I wrote essays, and they stole my chips the second I thought I was happier without music.”
