Hemlocke Springs has announced her debut album ‘the apple tree under the sea’

Hemlocke Springs is set to release her debut album ‘the apple tree under the sea’ on 13th February via AWAL.

This announcement follows her recent performances with Chappell Roan and Conan Gray, and the release of the lead single ‘the beginning of the end’. It’s accompanied by new track ‘head, shoulders, knees and ankles’.

Hemlocke Springs comments the record’s themes: “I grew up very religiously—Christianity is very pertinent in Nigerian culture and the Black community—and I was also obedient to my elders. This album starts with a character going through the desert who says, ‘I’m going to do your will.’ They could be saying it to God or a man, but then they come across the apple. It’s about me being in this bubble, and realizing that being in that bubble was tougher than I thought, and then finally getting out and exploring who I really am.”
