Half Waif announces new album, See You At The Maypole
Half Waif – AKA Nandi Rose – has announced her sixth studio album, See You At The Maypole.
Directed by Derrick Belcham with choreography by Kora Radella, the new single sees Rose immersed in the natural elements that surround her Upstate New York home, emerging from a fetal state to one that expands, takes up space and is cleansed by water.
“Not everyone will go through a miscarriage, but this is a song about how to continue on after losing something precious, how to find the light on your face again,” Rose says. “Head up, it’s gonna get so much better you’ll see,” the lyrics urge, evoking a chin-up, jewellery box figurine, continuing its dance despite it all.
The forthcoming album was originally intended as a departure from her darker works. Where 2021’s Mythopoetics dealt with familial traumas and the patterns we carry with us, Rose––armed with the anticipation of planning her own family––envisioned a new collection of soft and joyous odes to motherhood and to new beginnings.
See You At The Maypole is out on 4 October via ANTI-, and is available to pre-order now.
