SASAMI "Free"

SASAMI, has shared a video for “Free,” the latest track from her self-titled debut album, out March 8th via Domino. The video was directed by Riley Blakeway (Liars, Cherry Glazerr). The song features additional vocals by Devendra Banhart. SASAMI, begins her tour on February 27th in Berlin, Germany.

Sasami on “Free”;

“‘Free’ is a lopsided duet about how destiny plays into matters of the heart- how sometimes when you lose in love, freedom is the consolation prize, and in that way, you’ve actually transcended.”

Sasami Ashworth, aka SASAMI wrote the album’s ten tracks over the course of a year on tour, playing keys and guitar with Cherry Glazerr. “Ok, maybe they’re more like over-dramatic drafts of texts that you compose in the Notes section of your iPhone, but either way, they come from a place of getting something off my chest.” In an Instagram post announcing the release of “Callous,” a haunting ballad chronicling the disintegration of a relationship over wrenching guitar wails, she sums up the inspiration behind her engrossingly confessional debut more bluntly: “Everyone I fucked and who fucked me last year.”
