Song appears on forthcoming debut album
Fletcher shares her new single “Becky’s So Hot,” a thrillingly intimate portrait of lusting after her ex’s new girlfriend. The track is the latest single from her forthcoming debut album Girl Of My Dreams, due on CD and LP on via Capitol Records on September 16th.
“I wrote ‘Becky’s So Hot’ a couple years ago after I was creeping on my ex’s new girlfriend’s Instagram while I was in the studio,” Fletcher shares. “I accidentally liked a picture of her wearing a vintage t-shirt of my ex’s, one that I’ve worn before. The complexities of moving on were something I wanted to explore and it felt more interesting to me to write something from the perspective of being in in awe of her; sort of like ‘damn… it kinda stings that she’s so hot, but I can’t even be mad about it because I get it…she’s hot.’ Girl Of My Dreams picks up where THE S(EX) TAPES leaves off and weaves through my dreams, fears, fantasies, messy moments and all the fleeting feelings in between. It paints a picture of how pain can evolve and so can you.”
“Becky’s So Hot” sets Fletcher’s expression of desire to an intense sonic backdrop (scorching guitar work, trembling rhythms, fiercely pounding drums) with production by long-time collaborator One Love and newcomer Pink Slip. With its dizzying collision of longing and frustration, jealousy and pleasure, the track affirms Fletcher’s gift for bringing the most nuanced emotions to wildly dazzling life.
The song serves as the second single to her debut album and arrives as the follow-up to “Her Body Is Bible.” Executive-produced by Malay (Frank Ocean, Lorde), Girl Of My Dreams reveals her inner world more fearlessly than ever before, documenting the deeply transformative experiences on her way to self-discovery.
Fletcher will hit the road this fall for the Girl Of My Dreams Tour, a 25-date headlining run of North America. Kicking off on October 10th at House of Blues Orlando, the tour will continue through November 18th at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles, with sold out stops at legendary venues like the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City.
