The song is the latest preview from her new album
Acclaimed multi-instrumentalist Amanda Shires has released her latest track, “Lately,” from her new album, Nobody’s Girl, which drops on Friday, September 26th, via ATO Records. Co-written by Shires and keyboardist Peter Levin, “Lately” flirts with optimism in the face of soul-searching.
“It’s about that in-between place where you’re not okay, but you’re not falling apart either…you’re just wandering, looking for something to hold on to. It’s cinematic but grounded. It’s fighting the blues with more blues and searching the sky for a silver lining,” Shires explains.
“Lately” follows the first two singles to be unveiled from the album, including “A Way It Goes” and “Piece Of Mind,” which was the most-added track at Americana radio upon its release. The song is also garnering strong support at Triple A radio with over 20 stations playing the track in cities including Los Angeles, Nashville, Austin, Boston and more.
Produced by Lawrence Rothman, Nobody’s Girl is a deeply personal body of work. The confessional collection of songs deals in themes of heartbreak and loss, resilience, self-discovery and empowerment. The album was recorded at Sound Emporium Studios in Nashville and Los Angeles.
Shires is currently supporting Aly & AJ on an extensive North American tour and will also join the Allman Betts Family Revival Tour later this fall. There are also select headlining shows and in-store appearances announced.
