Hatchie, the project of Brisbane, Australia’s Harriette Pilbeam, has announced a short tour of Australia in support of her new single “This Enchanted.” The track, which marks her first single since her lauded debut album Keepsake, captures the intense rush of love, the way you can plunge into those feelings the same way you could drown in a Hatchie song -- a tidal wave of swirling textures, kaleidoscopic guitars and layers of twinkling synths, but with intensified energy. Consider it, if you will, a reintroduction to Hatchie’s sound.
Of the song, Pilbeam says, "'This Enchanted' encapsulates everything I wanted to do moving forward from my first album. I started writing it with Jorge and Joe in February 2020 and completed it from afar in lockdown later in the year. We had been talking about making something dancey but shoegaze.”
“It's one of the more lighthearted, lyrically vague songs of my new recordings about falling in love; it's not a perfect relationship, but you're enthralled by one another and it's an easy love,” she continues. “It's one of the most fun songs I've written, so it was a no-brainer to pick it as my first solo release in almost two years. It feels so right to be working with a label as exciting as Secretly as I step into new territory with Hatchie. I've been counting down the days until its release for a long time."
In 2018 Hatchie was named a Rising artist by Pitchfork, who also awarded her the Best New Track distinction, calling her “the dream-pop idol of tomorrow.” Her “nineties-indebted dream pop” was praised as “undeniable” by The FADER and she was named an Artist to Watch by Stereogum.
