Shura – Recognise

Shura is back, and it feels like a long time coming. Her new album, the amazingly titled I Got Too Sad For My Friends, lands May 30 and she’s just dropped the first single, Recognise, which kicks off with dreamy, otherworldly synths and hushed, almost ghostly vocals before bursting into this messy, beautiful chaos of drums. Shura says it’s about coming out of a dark period and learning to find peace in the little things and quotes Arthur Russell as saying “being sad is not a crime”, which feels apt.

Shura – obsession

Shura released a new song today, obsession, which comes accompanied by a beautiful video and includes a verse from Rosie Lowe, and everything about this is making me really happy. It’s got a real 80s slow-jam vibe about it, with super-crisp production and both Shu and Lowe on incredible sultry form. Happy fucking Wednesday!
