Half Waif unveils new single 'In August'

With her highly-anticipated new album now just over a week away, Half Waif has now unveiled the next cut to be lifted from her forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'In August' follows on from the previously shared tracks 'Halogen 2' and 'Ordinary Talk' in previewing her new LP 'The Caretaker', which is set to drop on the 27th March via Anti-Records.

Speaking about her new offering, she said, "'In August' tracks the dissolution of a friendship over the course of a year, throughout every season. There's a particular kind of sadness to a friendship ending when there's no one to blame, just as there's something mournful about the inevitable change of weather. Sometimes it's not a big fight but a gradual growing apart that marks the end - how do we make sense of our role in that? This song is an attempt to recognise and accept mutual culpability in an effort to move on."
