Nandi Rose, the creative force behind Half Waif, is set to release her sixth studio album, “See You At The Maypole,” on October 4th through ANTI- Records. Originally envisioned as a departure from her darker previous works, the album took a profound turn following a personal tragedy.
The album’s lead single, “Figurine,” debuted with a visually compelling video directed by Derrick Belcham and choreographed by Kora Radella. This track serves as a poignant introduction to the themes explored throughout the album. The song delves into the emotional aftermath of loss, exploring the journey of finding light and hope again.
“See You At The Maypole” is not just an album about personal grief but a universal narrative of recovering from various forms of loss, whether it be a life, a dream, or a sense of trust. Rose channels these collective experiences into a deeply introspective and healing collection of songs.
The creative process behind the album was a communal effort, involving Rose’s close relationships with people and nature, which she credits with helping her navigate back to a place of emotional vitality. These relationships are woven into the fabric of the album’s sound, creating a rich, supportive sonic landscape.
By inviting others to contribute to the heart of the album, Rose has crafted a record that resonates with the shared human experience of loss and recovery. “See You At The Maypole” stands as a testament to the power of community and the natural world in the healing process, making it a deeply impactful and emotionally resonant addition to Half Waif’s discography.
