Kendall Elise unveils sensual single 'I Want'
Kendall Elise, is back with a sensual new single, ‘I Want’. The moody track is the third and final single to be released off her upcoming sophomore album, LET THE NIGHT IN, out Friday, August 27.
With its trance-like pulse and minimalist arrangement, ‘I Want’ walks the line between wanting to express the dark side of lust and grappling with the internal fear of rejection.
Building to soaring organs and guitars, Kendall says: “It's finally admitting out loud to your object of desire, your all-consuming longing for connection, having it reciprocated, and then the resulting high.”
Kendall’s upcoming album, LET THE NIGHT IN, will be released on Friday, August 27.
The album contains the already released tracks ‘Between Hello and Goodbye’ (a finalist for the APRA Best Country Music Song at this year’s Country Music Awards) and Kendall’s unique rockabilly spin on Suzi Quatro’s iconic 70s hit ‘Your Mamma Won’t Like Me’.
Now, ‘I Want’ reveals yet another individual expression of the album’s overarching themes. “Each track has its own unique sound, but they all fit within the context of the album's themes of reaching catharsis; a pivotal moment or breaking point.”
To celebrate the release of LET THE NIGHT IN, Kendall Elise announces a special one-off launch show at Flying Out in Auckland on Saturday August 28 to preview the album. The following tour then kicks off from Friday September 3 at Auckland’s Phoenix Bar, Gisborne (September 11), Reporoa (September 12), Hamilton (September 18), Tauranga (October 2), Thames (October 3), Kumeu (October 23) before finishing up in Wellington at MOON on November 5.
