Dehd shares their third single, “Alien.” The single follows tracks “Light On” and “Mood Ring,” the track are off the Chicago trio’s forthcoming album Poetry, which drops on May 10th via Fat Possum records.

“Alien” delves into the concept of frontwoman Emily Kempf as an extraterrestrial being. She states: “This is about me being otherworldly, an artist of light, an angel, an alien or maybe some sort of faerie creature and wanting to find someone like me in this world, someone of my kind. Longing for this special person that’s as special as me to come around for me to love, but instead always coming to the same conclusion that I am fated to be a sort of loner hermit person with 1000 friends and that loving myself is the most important and rewarding thing I can consistently work on and do forever.”
