Angel Olsen shares new single 'Lark'

With her highly-anticipated new album set to drop next month, Angel Olsen has now unveiled the next cut to be lifted from her forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Lark' features an 11-piece string section conducted by Jherek Bischoff, and follows on from the previously shared lead title-track in previewing her new LP 'All Mirrors', which is set to be released on the 4th October via Jagjaguwar Records.

Speaking about her new release, she said, "'Lark' is a song that took many years to finish. The disjointed feelings and verses of this song began to make sense as a way for me to exercise a kind of journey through grieving, a kind of personal struggle. The message of the song developed at first from an argument I once had with someone about trust and support. Later, I pulled from recurring themes in my life as a musician and as a human that dreams for a living. It’s easy to promise the world to those we love, but what about when our dreams change and values split?"
