Speaking on the album title, Danielle shares, “the name came to me in a dream and I woke up laughing so I told my sisters.”

Alana adds, “I liked it because we are literally women in music and we always get written about that way, so it seemed cool to make it our own and control the narrative. It made me think about some of our experiences more.”

And Este says, “I just thought it was funny, plus the initials are WIMP3. Wimp is a hilarious word.”

Haim once again collaborated with two  Ariel Rechtshaid (Adele, Blood Orange, Carly Rae Jepsen) and Rostam Batmanglij (Charli XCX, Solange, Frank Ocean) to produce the new album. Women In Music Pt. III  is the follow up to Haim’s sophomore album, ‘Something To Tell You,’ which was released in July 2017.
