Indie folk artist Vera Sola releases new single "I'm Lying," announces U.S. tour dates
Indie folk artist Vera Sola has delivered their new single “I’m Lying” today.
The new single stems from Sola’s forthcoming studio album Peacemaker, which will see a February 2 release on City Slang. Sola said this about the single, which can be heard below:
"At some point, nearly every person close to me has speculated about who or what this song is about. All of them have been wrong. However—it’s an emotionally complex song. Whatever you might feel in it—sadness, humor, honesty, deception—it’s all in there.
I wrote it during a thunderstorm, while spending the night in the studio where I was recording Shades, and discarded it promptly. Years later, I was in some unthinking state, playing the main lick while hanging around waiting for band practice to start, when my friend and drummer Wyatt Bertz flagged it as worthwhile, thus rescuing it from the trash heap. That’s Wyatt and his drum part you hear on the recording."
In February, Sola will have a pair of album release shows in New York City and Los Angeles. In March, the artist will support El Perro Del Mar on a handful of shows. Tour dates can be seen below. Tickets for the album release shows are on sale to the general public right now here. Tickets for their shows with El Perro Del Mar will go on sale this Friday (December 8) at 10 a.m. local time.
Pre-orders for Peacemaker can be made here.
