Classically trained post-rocker A.A. Williams has returned with a brand new single, Splinter, her first new music since she released a standalone single cover of Placebo's Without You I'm Nothing last year.
“We so often avoid looking inwards, distracting ourselves with temporary fixes, concerning ourselves with effect not cause," says Williams of the new single. "We smooth over the surface, burying complexities and ignoring our emotions until one day we burst, we snap, we break apart. Splinter is a song of realisation, of recognising that things have gone too far, of seeing that we finally need to acknowledge how we feel in order to grow.
"I wanted to put out a new song ahead of my US tour, and my friends at Robot Needs Home kindly agreed to release Splinter with me as a one-off. It always feels good to launch new music but this particular song really means a lot, and I look forward to finally bringing it to life at my upcoming shows."
Williams starts her very first US headline tour tomorrow at Somerville's The Center for Arts at the Armory. The 26-date tour followed William's support slot with Sleep Token last year.
