Angel Olsen is back with another new song from her upcoming album Whole New Mess. Following the title track, she’s back with a new one called “Waving, Smiling.” She’s shared a visual, directed by Ashley Connor, where she performs the song in Asheville, North Carolina’s Masonic Temple. Watch it below.
“‘Waving, Smiling’ in my head is the last scene, a slow motion realization of love not lost but at peace somewhere within myself,” said Olsen in a statement. “It’s the bittersweet end of a chapter of my life—it is the final acceptance that despite coming to an end all of that time was not lost or wasted.”
Whole New Mess is out August 28 (via Jagjaguwar). It’s the companion to last year’s All Mirrors.
