Maisie Peters Announces New Album “The Good Witch” - June 16
The Good Witch by Maisie Peters out June 16, 2023
Maisie Peters steps into a brand new era, following the announcement of her brand new album, The Good Witch, arriving June 16, 2023 via Gingerbread Man Records / Elektra. The album will come as the official follow-up to Maisie’s acclaimed debut, You Signed Up For This. Years later, the British singer-songwriter has crafted a new musical world that draws inspiration from the works of Joan Didion, J.M. Barrie, Greek mythology, and Western movies, plus her most introspective and self-reflective takes yet on the complexities of romantic breakups, the preciousness of friendship, and the true value of self-worth.
“This is my heart and soul, my blood on the page, the collection of stories that I’ve managed to capture in the past year,” Maisie shares. “A true chronicle of my life in recent history, it is my own twisted version of a breakup album and it all draws upon the same couple of months’ worth of experiences and inspirations. It ducks and weaves between the real and surreal, and centres my own universe, of which I am of course the keeper of the keys and the holder of the cards - the good witch, if you will. It goes from light to dark in the flip of a switch and I hope takes you on a journey whereby the end you feel like you’ve gotten lost in someone else’s planet for a bit.”
Maisie’s new era comes with a riveting beginning at the heels of the album’s lead single, “Body Better.” Though vulnerable and honest, the song showcases a fresh, new version of the artist’s iconic pop-infused rock sound, and serves as yet another enchanting track about self-reflection post-breakup that her loyal following can relate to.
Maisie is currently on the road in support of Ed Sheeran’s Mathematics stadium tour in Australia and is set to perform her first-ever headline shows in Japan and Singapore. Later this year, she will also join select dates of Ed Sheeran’s Mathematics tour of North America. Get tickets here.
