Donate to support families affected by the crisis in Ukraine ➔ Lesley Pike Releases New Song “Paper Thin”
Canadian singer-songwriter Lesley Pike will release her new album “Wild” on October 28, 2022.
It is her first album in four years since the 2018 album “Honey & Rust”.
Having recorded the 12-song collection largely in the United Kingdom, in various settings including a converted Norfolk studio that was once an ambulance station in WWII, an industrial warehouse studio in Leeds, and finishing up at the legendary Abbey Road studios in London.
“Instead of a revenge or angry song, I wanted to write a letter to myself. It made me understand who I am a little more and what it is I want in a relationship,” Lesley Pike said. “My last album, Honey + Rust, was about a bad break-up and being in a dark place, I think Wild is about the resilience that comes after the pain.”- From the album, she released a new song “Paper Thin” on September 30, 2022.
It was written and produced by Lesley Pike, David Dunwell, and Joseph Dunwell.
She told Canadian Beats about the song, “I was staying in a hotel in Leeds while working with (British indie-folk duo) The Dunwells, and in the wee hours, I was awoken by a couple having a horrible shouting match in the next room. In addition to keeping me up all night, it really got me thinking about conflict, what it means, and where it comes from. When I got to the studio in the morning – bleary-eyed but strangely inspired – we had a fascinating conversation about relationship dynamics and wrote “Paper Thin” right after that.” - source : Apple Music
