Jenny Hval has revealed her upcoming album 'Iris Silver Mist', inspired by a fragrance and set to launch on May 2. The lead single 'To Be a Rose' is available now, with an accompanying music video showcasing tour footage from 2015 to 2024. Hval describes the song as having a restless pop structure, emphasizing transformation and interconnectedness. The album consists of 13 tracks, many developed in live settings. Hval is planning a series of concerts in Europe this spring, highlighting her commitment to live performance.
'To Be a Rose' was written as a restless pop structure. It has a chorus, with chords and a melody, but each chorus sounds slightly different, like we are experiencing the melody from different seasons, decades, or even different bodies.
If about anything, 'To Be a Rose' is about how one thing becomes another thing, how we all come from somewhere and someone, and how this is stranger and more powerful than we think.
