Atlanta artist Faye Webster has announced her fifth album, Underdressed at the Symphony, due out on March 1 via Secretly Canadian. It’s the follow-up to 2021’s I Know I’m Funny haha, and it features guitar from Wilco‘s Nels Cline and pedal steel from Matt “Pistol” Stoessel. “Going to the symphony was almost like therapy for me,” she says. “I was quite literally underdressed at the symphony because I would just decide at the last moment that that’s what I wanted to do. I got to leave what I felt like was kind of a shitty time in my life and be in this different world for a minute. I liked that I didn’t feel like I belonged.”
The album features Faye’s 2023 singles “Lifetime” and “But Not Kiss,” and she’s shared a third single, “Lego Ring,” which features her longtime friend Lil Yachty. “I think I hit a point in songwriting during this record where I was just like, man, I said a lot.” she says. “The record feels like a mouthful to me, but I don’t always have to be deep. I can just sit down and sing about this ring made of crystal Lego that I really want.” You can watch the video, directed by Kyle Ng, below; Kyle also created the video game Faye and Yachty are playing in it, and you can play along here.
