Kate Bollinger has dropped a pair pair of new singles, “Lonely” and “Sweet Devil.” The tracks are off the multidisciplinary artist,’s forthcoming album Songs From A Thousand Frames Of Mind, available September 27th via Ghostly International, the tracks will also be released as a limited edition 7”. “Lonely” offers one of its most intimate moments, a homespun piano ballad written with Matthew E. White. The haunting B-side “Sweet Devil” is accompanied by a music video, which Bollinger directed, edited and starred in herself.

“My friend Matt (Matthew E. White) and I began getting together and writing songs every couple of weeks or so, back when I lived in Virginia. On October 2nd of 2020, we met up for the first time on the tiny basketball court outside his studio with a keyboard and a vocal mic going through an amp, and wrote one of many since-abandoned songs. ‘Sweet Devil’ and ‘Lonely’ are two of our surviving collaborations,” Bollinger says of the tracks.

Songs From A Thousand Frames Of Mind Written during a period of transience and change, the album was made to resemble a mixtape—something carefully crafted and delivered from just one person to another. In sharing this music with listeners, Bollinger took inspiration from her own formative encounters with art: quietly worshiping the early musical projects of her older brothers, attending local shows in Charlottesville and feeling empowered to write songs of her own, inheriting burned CDs from older classmates and finding a portal to another world. (Working with her friends Emma Collins and Evangeline Neuhart on the visual accompaniment.
