Smitten is the fourth studio album by English rock band Pale Waves. It is scheduled for release on September 20, 2024, via the independent record label Dirty Hit.[2]
Writing
In late 2023, Kerrang! magazine asked the band's lead singer Heather Baron-Gracie about the album that would become Smitten, to which she replied: "All of my attention and energy is going into writing and recording our best album yet. Ultimately, that's about building a world that feels like Pale Waves, while also feeling completely different to anywhere we’ve inhabited before. We’re creating another universe for our fans to explore, and for us to live in for a moment."[3]
Promotion and singles
On 24 May 2024, Pale Waves performed at the 100 Club in London under the pseudonym "Perfume" as part of Dork magazine's "Dork Night Out" event series; at this concert, they debuted the song of the same name.[4][5] "Perfume" was later released as the first single from Smitten, debuting on BBC Radio 1's "New Music Show" with Jack Saunders on 12 June 2024.[1] A video for the track was also released at this time, alongside an announcement about the album itself.[6] "Perfume" eventually peaked at number 13 on Billboard Japan's Hot Overseas chart.[7]
