Christopher Owens has announced his first new album in seven years, titled I want to run barefoot through your hairwhich will be released on October 18th via True Panther. The announcement was accompanied by a new song, “No Good,” which comes with an acoustic performance video. Check it out below.
The former Girls singer made her first preview I want to run barefoot through your hair with the previously released “I Think About Heaven.” “No Good” shares the vulnerable texture of “I Think About Heaven” but finds Owens in a less optimistic place: “No, not another love song/ Not one more song where I pretend everything will be okay/ I died the day you left me,” he sings.
Despite the sadder subject matter of “No Good,” a statement about the upcoming LP claims there’s a “renewed sense of purpose” as the driving force behind the project. Owens describes the album as “a record about a journey back to the center of myself.”
Here, Owens is beginning a new chapter after a period marked by hardship: Following the loss of her Girls bandmate Chet “JR” White, Owens has also been working to recover from a life-threatening motorcycle accident.
Speaking of I want to run barefoot through your hairIn the second half of the Bible, Jesus asks, “What will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, yet loses his own soul?” Lately I’ve found it interesting to put it another way.
