Cameroon-born singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Vagabon (real name Laetitia Tamko) has announced her sophomore album, All The Women In Me, due out September 27 via Nonesuch.
The album announcement also comes with a new single, the labyrinthian “Flood.” It’s a seriously gorgeous song, sparkling with impeccable production (Tamko wrote and produced every song on All The Women In Me) and Tamko’s airy, evocative vocals.
Of the song, Tamko says, “‘Flood’ is a track I originally produced and arranged for a well-known pop duo to have on their album. Knowing I was writing this song for musicians I admire, allowed me this relief from my writer’s block. I used this assignment as a chance to flex my production muscles and write something I wouldn’t have written as a ‘Vagabon’ song a couple years ago. The result felt like a triumph for me in my progression as an artist and I just couldn’t stand to part with the song by the time I was finished.”
Vagabon is also heading out on tour this fall, supporting Angel Olsen‘s first full band tour since 2017. Check out Vagabon’s tour itinerary below, and listen to “Flood” above.
