Product details
she is the third song in a wider queer song cycle called a love is a love is a love. It might be the most sapphic thing I have ever written.
Set to text by Savanna Wegman, she is about intimacy: the intimacy of breath and the little things you notice about someone when you feel something for them. But while it is undoubtedly about these small details, I also wanted it to feel elemental and sublime, and guide us to unexpected places.
In a sense, she is an incantation that might hark back to Sappho - one of the earliest queer women we know of - and the thing I love most about her writing: the beautiful balance of reverence, awe and desire.
