Lou Hayter teases forthcoming album with its title track, "Unfamiliar Skin"
DJ, producer and songwriter Lou Hayter has returned with new single and title track of her forthcoming album, Unfamiliar Skin.
"'Unfamiliar Skin' is a phrase that came up in a conversation I was having with my friend about affairs. As in, why do people risk losing their relationship for the feeling of unfamiliar skin? I also liked the term because I produced this album myself for the first time so I was in a new and unfamiliar skin myself and out of my comfort zone. So it has a duality to it that I found interesting and I chose to make it the album title," Lou Hayter explains.
‘Unfamiliar Skin’ also comes with its own visual world, as Lou teams up once again with fellow musician (The Horrors) and director, Tom Furse (Stevie Nicks, HAAi, Charles Jeffrey), who directed the single for the album’s lead single "In My Heart".
“The video is both about that first lovers touch and also being out of your own body - in unfamiliar skin”, says Tom Furse.
Unfamiliar Skin is set for release on 8 November via Greco-Roman.
