Snail Mail delivers new single 'Ben Franklin'

With her highly-anticipated new album now less than a month away, Snail Mail has now unveiled the next cut to be lifted from her forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Ben Franklin' comes accompanied by a stunning new video, directed by Josh Coll, and follows on from the previously shared title-track in previewing her sophomore LP 'Valentine', which is out on the 5th November via Matador Records.

Speaking about the new offering, she said, "I wanted to sonically and lyrically get out of my comfort zone with Ben Franklin. It felt only right that the visual accompaniment should include dancing in front of a camera and holding a 10 foot snake close to my face."
