Christian Lee Hutson has shared a fourth outing from his Phoebe Bridgers and Conor Oberst-produced second album Quitters titled "Cherry".

"Cherry" will appear on Hutson's Quitters album with earlier outings "Age Difference", "Rubberneckers" and "Strawberry Lemonade".

Hutson explains, "I wanted to describe that part of growing up in Los Angeles, having a cool older friend who will drive you speeding and have you jump out on the roof of the car."

Quitters will follow Hutson's 2020 debut album Beginners.

"When we made Beginners the aim was to make simple digital recordings of how I would play the songs in the room," Hutson said of the album. "With this record, Phoebe and Conor had an idea that it would be fun to make it to tape. Phoebe is my best friend and making Beginners with her was so comfortable and easy. So I wanted to work with her again."

He added, "I took a long time with Beginners. I had those songs for 10 years, but these songs came out a lot faster ... There was a little bit of insecurity with the lyrics. Having Conor there served the purpose of someone who I really respect as a lyricist and could soothe my anxiety."

"Cherry" is out now. Christian Lee Hutson's Quitters album will be released 1 April via ANTI-, and is available to pre-order now. He'll play The Lexington in London on 11 May. Tickets are on sale now from dice.fm.
