Singer/songwriter Cornelia Murr will release her new LP, Run To The Center on February 28th via 22TWENTY. The album was produced by Luke Temple (Adrienne Lenker, Hand Habits). Ahead of the album’s release, the artist has shred the single, “Pushing East,” which is about leaving life as you know it and forging ahead because you must. The track features Murr’s mother, Pamela Livingston, on flute (she also designed the cover art for the single).

Cornelia Murr on

““Pushing East” is a breakup song, to be played ideally loud in the car in the fresh moment of irrevocable change. It speaks to aspects of relationship between musicians, when collaboration often takes place and leaves a creative product, and how an experience of one’s music differs completely from experiencing a relationship with that person. It’s a wish for future peace and liberation, too.”

“Pushing East” follows previous singles “How Do You Get By” and “Meantime.” She will play those songs and other tracks off the album at her record release celebrations in New York on February 27th and 28th at Brooklyn’s Union Pool and in Los Angeles at Gold Diggers on March 8th and 9th.

Run To The Center is the follow-up to 2022’s EP Corridor and her 2018 debut Lake Tear of the Clouds (produced by James) – is the most updated expression of who Murr is now, both socially and emotionally, particularly as questions around artmaking have become more urgent for her over the better part of the last decade. Run To The Center is a fully realized portrait of a woman and an artist in her thirties, standing triumphantly in uncertainties, asking the crucial questions one needs to sustain a life: How can you fit everything you want into a life? How can you do this if you want so much? The LP was born of a need to excavate Murr’s desires and experience of time, both in new songs born spontaneously out of an easy collaboration with Temple, as well as older songs that, for years, had been knocking around in her brain.
