#beabadoobee Announces 1975-Produced EP, Shares New Song “Last Day on Earth”: Listen

beabadoobee has announced Our Extended Play, a new EP produced and co-written with Matty Healy and George Daniel of the 1975. The Dirty Hit signee’s next project is out this spring. Hear the lead single “Last Day on Earth” below. And, at 3 p.m. Eastern, check out the song’s music video, directed by Arnaud Bresson of Division Paris.

“‘Last Day on Earth’ is about all the things I would have done had I known we were going into a lockdown and the world was going to change the way it has,” beabadoobee said in a press release. “It was written shortly after the first main lockdown and lyrically it’s me reflecting on how it would feel if we all knew ahead of time what was going to happen. All the things I would have done if I knew it was the last day of our old normality. I wrote and recorded the EP on a farm with Matty and George from the 1975 in the countryside. It was really nice being able to create together, my first time writing and recording in that kind of setting. I wanted to experiment on the sounds and sonics even more and the EP to me has a feeling of togetherness to it… how we’re all in this joined as one.”

Our Extended Play follows last year’s Fake It Flowers. beabadoobee’s first proper tour behind that album is set to kick off this September in the United Kingdom, following festival appearances in July and August. Check out the full list of dates below, too.
