Donate to support families affected by the crisis in Ukraine ➔ Maya Hawke Releases New Song “Dark”
American actress and singer-songwriter Maya Hawke released a new song “Dark” along with a music video on March 20, 2024.
The song is the second single off of her upcoming third studio album “Chaos Angel”, following the release of “Missing Out” last month. Both songs are introspective tracks.
The track was written by Maya Hawke and produced by Christian Lee Hutson.
The accompanying video was directed by Christian Lee Hutson.
Maya Hawke said of the song, “'Dark' is a cut and dry love song about a relationship struggling to find its footing. It's about trying to sort out the mixed bag of history and pain two people bring into a new love to find the path forward. The chorus was written a few years ago when I was going through a particularly debilitating bout of bedtime anxiety: I would lay in bed with the fear that if I let myself fall asleep, my brain would forget how to breathe and I would die in my sleep. I saw a doctor who told me that I had to become okay with dying. He said if I accepted it, I would be able to sleep and would likely...not die. He was right, I didn't die. And I wrote this song to celebrate it.”- The new album is set to be released on May 31, 2024 and comprises a 10-track.
It is her first body of work in two years since the 2022 album “MOSS”.
On the album, she catalogs upheavals, revelations, foibles, and broken promises, all while navigating the patterns we repeat while growing older, wandering astray, and finding our way back to some core understanding of ourselves. - source : Apple Music
