Philadelphia-via-Las Vegas shapeshifting musician Shamir have a new single out, ‘Our Song’ taken from her upcoming album, ‘Homo Anxietatem,’ out August 18th via Kill Rock Stars.

‘Our Song’ is the second single off his ninth album. Additionally, Shamir announces a run of performances in Europe for October.

‘Homo Anxietatem’ was recorded and produced by Hoost aka Justin Tailor (Rina Sawayama) in London. After a run of critically acclaimed heavy rock and industrial-tinged records, the non-binary artist now transmutes his anxiety to alternately subdued and soaring alt-pop songs, as the Latin translation of the album’s title, “anxious man,” suggests.

Shamir explains the new track & video: “It took about three months to write this song, which is the longest it’s ever taken me to write a song. The music video is a love letter to my band. Grant Pavol and Rhea Freed are the only reason I still play live. I wanted the video to focus on the three of us as a band.”
