Abigail Lapell is looping a sixth album under her belt. Anniversary is set for release on May 10 via Outside Music.
Anniversary deals with the concept of growing old with someone, bringing forward themes of eternal love, fading youth and the dearly departed. It's meant to frame commitment as both haunting and consoling. “I wanted to explore some of the contradictions within the pop culture notion of love,” Lapell said of the effort in a press release.
With the announcement, Lapell has shared lead single "Anniversary Song," which was recorded alongside the rest of the record at the 200-year-old St. Mark's Church in Niagara-on-the-Lake, ON. Listen to it below, where you can also find the tracklist.
