"Automatic Love" is Frances' first release of 2023, and follows the release of her Protector album that arrived in October last year.

She says of the track, which was originally recorded during the Protector sessions: ""Automatic Love" is a song about handing yourself over to the unknown, giving in to the unpredictability of nature. I spent time alone writing, learning to love myself so that I could experience deeper love for those close to me. It is about a divine connection to something greater than yourself. It is a form of prayer for the chaos of love.

"I was spending so much time outside, wandering and watching Autumn's decay, subconsciously planting seeds for Spring. The song feels vast and open for me and should ideally be listened to outside, where you can experience wind and sun on your skin."
