New Zealand-born, Melbourne-based singer-songwriter Sarah Mary Chadwick presents a new single/video, 'Full Mood', off of her new album, Me And Ennui Are Friends, Baby, out February 5th on Rice Is Nice Records & Ba Da Bing.
It's the follow-up to previously released tracks 'At Your Leisure' and 'Every Loser Needs A Mother'. In 'Full Mood', Chadwick's measured voice is stark over simplistic piano. She describes ardent, all-consuming emotions: "'Cause you got me in a full mood // I'm on fire for you // Wanna colour in the world for you // 'Cause you got me in a full mood."
The accompanying video, directed by Tristan Scott-Behrends, visualizes the track's tenderness, depicting intimate moments between a couple.
"'Full Mood' is about a Valentine's Day date I went on," explains Chadwick. "The owner of the bar we were at tried to get us both to fuck her, but she wouldn't let me be in charge so we didn't. I remember afterwards we were walking down the road and it was streetlights and still at 3am and everything felt great and shining and I remember thinking that I wish my dad could've done this, got drunk and kicked around the city at night when it's all sparkly, holding onto someone who lights you up, not been stuck in silent dark rural New Zealand, watching other people's lives on TV, drinking half glasses of box wine while his frowning wife ironed."
To celebrate the launch of her seventh studio record Me And Ennui Are Friends, Baby, Sarah Mary Chadwick is pleased to announce four live performances over four Fridays starting in February.
Performing Me And Ennui.. in its entirety, Chadwick will also be revisiting her favourite moments from her two previous records, 2020's Please Daddy and 2019's The Queen Who Stole The Sky.
Either performing with guests or alone, the four shows promise to be very magical evenings, with special thanks to Brunswick Street's newest bar for hosting, the beautiful Avalon.
Tickets are extremely limited in this intimate setting so purchase quickly to avoid disappointment.
