As part of her current retrospective campaign, Lissie has shared her previously unreleased track – All Be Okay – that was originally written in 2007, featuring on her ‘Watch Over Me’ album. Listen to the track here.
Lissie’s current retrospective campaign is an extraordinary one, reflecting on her path and journey in order to understand where she wants to go to next. This summer, she will release the ‘Anniversary Edition’ of her breakthrough debut album ‘Catching A TIger’ on June 25th, followed by a collection of highlights from her formative songbook with ‘Watch Over Me (Early Works 2002-2009)’ on July 23rd. Lissie today continues her voyage of rediscovery by sharing the previously unreleased song ‘All Be Okay’. Originally written in 2007, the song features on the ‘Watch Over Me’ album. Listen HERE.
“‘All Be Okay’ is such a delightful song,” says Lissie. “About two years into my time in LA, I found myself in a very warm and welcoming community of musicians. We had our Beachwood Rockers crew and our weekly residency at Crane’s Hollywood Tavern. I was playing with a band for the first time! That being said, there was still some fear that went along with trying to make it in the big city, such as power struggles and hurt feelings. There was levity in just believing that everything would work out in the end!”
With a loose, live feel, the song’s blend of country-rock and ‘60s tinged pop is a suitably warm-hearted accompaniment for the purity of its message. And for a lyric which expressed the hope and defiance of an aspirational young artist, it again feels timely today – a shot of positivity to help counteract these challenging times. Whether you’re in the first flush of youth or deep into adulthood, as the song states we’re all in the process of “working it out.”
‘All Be Okay’ joins ‘Hey Boy’ as an instant grat for fans who download ‘Watch Over Me (Early Works 2002-2009)’ here. ‘Catching A Tiger (Anniversary Edition)’ is available here, with pre-orders rewarded by instant downloads of ‘I Don’t Know What I’m Doing Anymore’ and ‘It’s Not Me’. Bundles featuring both albums on CD and/or vinyl are also on offer, and will be packaged with an exclusive signed photographic print.
