Following her angelic single “All Mirrors,” Angel Olsen has shared another new track off her upcoming album titled “Lark,” and much like “All Mirrors” this song is a tearjerker with a gorgeous ethereal buildup and cinematic string arrangements. About the song Olsen says “Lark” is a song that took many years to finish. The disjointed feelings and verses of this song began to make sense as a way for me to exercise a kind of journey through grieving, a kind of personal struggle. The message of the song developed at first from an argument I once had with someone about trust and support. Later, I pulled from recurring themes in my life as a musician and as a human that dreams for a living. It’s easy to promise the world to those we love, but what about when our dreams change and values split? Olsen’s new album All Mirrors will be released on October 4th. You can watch the music video for “Lark” below:
