Orlando Weeks announces his third solo album.
Orlando Weeks has set his new studio record LOJA for digital release on June 6th and physical on August 23rd.
Lead track Dig features a guest appearance from Rhian Teasdale of Wet Leg, described as a, ‘tit for tat exchange where long worn-out promises are remade and road weary offences retaken, the kind of disagreement that manages to be somewhere between outpouring of emotion and exposed internal monologue’.
The album as a whole, meanwhile, will reflect the ‘great change’ of a relocation from London to Lisbon, and how this inspired, ‘a love letter to the place that we now call home’:
But I think the move provided a stirring of the waters. It threw up an awful lot of stuff and it gave us perspective and hindsight because suddenly there was distance. You can re-evaluate the things you were too close to, those things that there was no point spending time thinking about because it was the day-to-day bubble you were in.
