Sky Ferreira has dropped her first new music in over two years, with “Leash,” now available via via A24 Music. The track marks Sky’s newest original song for a film as she wrote it for A24’s pcoming film Babygirl, out in theaters on December 25, in which it is prominently featured.

“Leash” features occasionally unnerving lyrics. With lines like “bit my tongue and bled the truth / as I live and breathe, I’m dead to you,” electricity courses through the track. It channels the same pop ethos that put Sky on the map with her lauded 2013 debut album Night Time, My Time, with an evolved and more self-assured sound. The track was co-written with Jorge Elbrecht.

Babygirl stars Nicole Kidman, Harris Dickinson, Sophie Wilde, and Antonio Banderas. Written and Directed by Halina Reijn, the film tells the tale of a high-powered CEO who puts her career and family on the line when she begins a torrid affair with her much younger intern.

Born in Los Angeles in 1992, Sky earned her first record deal in her teens. Throughout her early career, Ferreira collaborated with notable producers like Greg Kurstin, Miike Snow, and Paul Epworth. She appeared in indie films such as Putty Hill. In 2008, she signed with Capitol Records, releasing her first single: “One” two years later.

In 2012, she collaborated with Jon Brion, Shirley Manson, and Dev Hynes on her Ghost EP, which included the standout track “Everything Is Embarrassing.” The song was subsequently crowned New York Magazine’s song of the year. Ferreira self-funded her debut album through modeling gigs, ultimately releasing Night Time, My Time in October 2013. The album, a fusion of synth-pop and grunge, with cover artwork by Argentine filmmaker Gaspar Noé,

In March 2019, Ferreira released “Downhill Lullaby,” a preview of Masochism, followed by a collaboration with Charli XCX on “Cross You Out” later that year. In May 2022 with “Don’t Forget,” a high-energy synth-pop track that harkened back to her earlier work. Now, in 2024, she has released “Leash” for the major film feature Babygirl as an independent artist, reaffirming her status as a compelling figure in music and culture.
