Anna von Hausswolff releases new single, "Struggle With The Beast"

"Struggle With The Beast" follows previously released singles "Stardust", "The Whole Woman", and "Facing Atlas". Anna von Hausswolff has also announced a headline tour to take place next year across the UK, Europe, and North America, with a performance at London's Islington Assembly Hall (28 January).

“I wrote this song after a close friend experienced a psychosis,” von Hausswolff reveals. “There was something unstoppable and completely disconnected about her, as if she were living and reigning in a parallel universe of some kind. She was so far away from the person I knew, as if all of her social barriers had completely dissolved. There was a new, weird brilliance to her way of communicating and being. She had no filters. I'm glad she's back to normal today, but it made me think of how vulnerable and complex we all are, and that there are layers of unresolved trauma and unspoken truths within everyone," Anna von Hausswolff explains.
