Henry Green announces second album with lead track "Realign"

13 February 2020, 12:16 | Written by Cerys Kenneally

Henry Green is back with details of his second LP Half Light, as well as sharing the lead single "Realign".

"Realign" is the first new single from Green since his 2018 debut album Shift.

He says of the new offering, ""Realign" is about self exploration, and the idea that clarity can actually arrive in the moments when you're distanced from your thoughts, and the preconceptions of how things should be. I wanted the track to feel expansive and euphoric, but intimate and honest in equal measure. That desire to balance the two styles inspired the production of the track."

Discussing his forthcoming album, Green says, "A lot of the songs are about that struggle to express. Coming into the record I wanted to make something that was a separation from myself, and didn't feel like such a window into my feelings. But because of my feelings throughout the process I think these are the most honest songs I've ever written."

He adds of the album title, "I almost wanted to hint that this album is a transitional thing. The Half Light is a lyric in the first verse I wrote for the album, and I love that idea that you’re not fully standing in the sunlight. You're not yourself and you’re slightly in the dark in your mind, but you know that you still have something to give... So the overriding feeling that I hope people get from [Half Light] is that it's a defiant record."

Tracklist:

  1. All
  2. Tide (feat. Andreya Triana)
  3. Fabric
  4. Sunlight
  5. Yoyuu
  6. Realign
  7. Idle (feat. Ghostly Kisses)
