Snail Mail has shared new single “My Maker,” the track is off her forthcoming album Ricochet, available March 27 via Matador Records. The single-take hot air balloon music video for the track was directed by Linsey Jordan and Elsie Richter.

Jordan will soon head out on a major North American tour this spring, kicking off April 10 in Milwaukee and running through early May. The tour will mark Snail Mail’s first extensive run of North America in support of Ricochet and they will make stops at Brooklyn Paramount in Brooklyn on April 15 and Los Angeles’ The Wiltern on May 1.

“My Maker” was the lyrical jumping off point of the record, the anchor that helped me build the rest of the album around it. I kept thinking about the line “it’s just sky,” which obviously meant we had to make a video in a hot air balloon. It took six canceled rides for that to happen, but we finally got up there. I wanted the video to reference the lyrics about mortality, but also about the freedom that comes with realizing fate is out of your hands, says Jordan.

Ricochet was written during a period of change for Jordan, that included a move to North Carolina from NYC. She recorded the album with producer and bassist Aron Kobayashi Ritch (Momma) at Fidelitorium Recordings in North Carolina, as well as Nightfly and Studio G in Brooklyn. The sessions, Jordan says, felt “refreshing, trusting, and comfortable,” allowing her to fully inhabit the songs without compromise. The album also marks a departure in Jordan’s creative process. “I’ve never done this before, but I wrote all of the instrumentals and vocal melodies on the piano or guitar, and then I filled in the lyrics all at once over a year,” she explains.
