Dehd announces Blue Skies, their debut record for Fat Possum. Ahead of the release, the band have shared a video for lead single “Bad Love.” Additionally. The LP follows THEIR 2020 full-length Flower of Devotion. Today’s “Bad Love” is described as “a surge of self-liberation, with vocalist Emily Kempf leading the charge through an anthem about admitting your faults, seeking forgiveness, and finding a way forward.” “I was a bad love / Now I can get some,” she offers at the start, “I got a heart full of redemption.” The accompanying video was directed by Kempf and co-director, Kevin Veselka.

While continuing to write and record every part of the album themselves, the new relationship with Fat Possum did allow for a few indulgences, collaborating with engineer, Craig Silvey (The National, Arcade Fire), and mastering engineer, Heba Kadry (Slowdive, Bjork, Cate Le Bon), ensuring Dehd’s vision for “Blue Skies”.
