Jehnny Beth<\/a> has unveiled a haunting new single, \u201cInnocence.\u201d The track appears on the French musician\u2019s upcoming solo debut, To Love Is to Live<\/em>, out June 12th.<\/p>\n

Directed by Andreas Neumann, the clip features footage of Beth rehearsing for her set at the BBC 6 Music Festival last month. The song\u2019s lyrics are eerily timely amid the current pandemic: \u201cBe thankful for the air you breathe\/the roof over your head\/and the light that comes in.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of the things I tried to convey in the album resonate strongly today, sometimes as if premonitory,\u201d Beth wrote on her Instagram<\/a>. \u201c\u2018Innocence\u2019 is about the feeling of isolation I have felt many times in big cities while living so close to people and yet feeling so distant.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI think this album coming out at this moment will feel important, maybe even comforting,\u201d she continued. \u201cObviously we couldn\u2019t shoot a video during lockdown, but luckily we had filmed some beautiful footage at rehearsal and will share that with you. A gig without an audience. Or more exactly a gig with a virtual audience\u2026you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cInnocence\u201d follows the lead single \u201cI\u2019m the Man<\/a>\u201d and \u201cFlower.<\/a>\u201d To Love Is To Live<\/em> was produced by Flood \u2014 known for his work with U2, Nine Inch Nails and New Order \u2014 who recently produced Radiohead\u2019s Ed O\u2019Brien\u2019s solo debut, Earth.<\/a><\/p>\n

Beth originally planned to release To Love Is To Live<\/em> on May 8th, but the record was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic. Beth wanted to support independent record stores by ensuring her album would be available when they reopen.<\/p>\n

\u201cRecord stores are where I found myself as a teenager, digging through albums that ultimately shaped who I have become,\u201d she said. \u201cTo release my first ever solo album in a way that would leave them out felt wrong to me; luckily, we were able to find a date that would allow us to release the physical and digital album at the same time.\u201d<\/p>\n
