Artist News Releases
VV Brown returns with first new music for six years
By Andy Malt | Published on Tuesday 28 March 2023
Following a six year break from music to focus on her mental health and raise her two children, VV Brown has announced that she will return with a new album this year. Out now is first single ‘Black British’.
“The last six years have been a difficult mental health journey for me, but I came to the realisation that I need music to feel alive”, she says. “Now that I live in the countryside, it feels liberating to create without that industry pressure. I spend most of my days wearing wellies, making music or enjoying the routine of family life”.
“Everything about this album, whether it be the artwork, the lyrics, the production or the visuals, is about starting sociological conversations”, she goes on. “Art should make you feel, whether that’s feeling uncomfortable, empowered, happy, sad, scared, inspired. There is a radical power in the role of the provocateur and this was one of the motives for this record”.
The new album will arrive on Brown’s own YOY Records later this year. For now, listen to ‘Black British’ here:
