With The Party Is Over (recovered) Wade continues the
intense exploration of her psyche’s recesses across 11 songs that she wrote
solo. As the project’s title notes, a handful of the songs date back to before
Wade signed her major-label deal and have been “recovered” here with all-new
versions.
In a time of self-reflection, Wade revisited her earlier writing sessions to
revitalize past songs that still spoke to the person she is today. She has also
been playing some of her most relatable tracks on the road to sold-out shows
across the US, UK and Europe. These songs, which so many fans have gravitated
to live, will, for the first time ever, be made available. The Party
Is Over (recovered) connects Wade’s past and present and breathes
new life into her earlier works.
Wade invites listeners into the world of the forthcoming album with ‘The
Party Is Over’, an anthemic, guitar-driven track that explores her
lingering feelings in the aftermath of a relationship. “Another year
and I can’t leave you alone/And why would I want to?” she sings. “When
the lights all dim and the party is over/Baby I still want you when I’m sober.” With
the songwriting prowess and powerful storytelling she is so widely known for,
Wade captures the universal experience of holding onto a past love.
Earlier this year, Wade released the first single off the album, titled ‘East
Coast’ (659K streams). Originally introduced to fans during
her live shows, the single arrived alongside an accompanying music video, aptly
filmed on the coastline with powerful imagery. Listen to the single and watch
the video:
The Party Is Over (recovered) follows Wade’s recent album, OBSESSED, released late last year. The project arrived as a solo-written opus, which No Depression celebrated, “She’s without a doubt one of the finest singers in country and Americana music today, and this album is her best yet.” The 14-track LP pared things back to the essence of who she is as a musician, storyteller, and human. Obsessed followed her debut Reckless (which Rolling Stone declared the Best Country Album of the Year upon release) and second album Psychopath, which was spotlighted by The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, People, Tennessean, Variety, Uncut, The i, Daily Mail and many more.
One of Nashville’s most critically acclaimed stars, Morgan Wade stands alone in her ability to dissect and examine human emotion through her visceral songwriting. Her latest album, Obsessed, was a solo-written opus, which No Depression celebrated, “She’s without a doubt one of the finest singers in country and Americana music today, and this album is her best yet.”
