LALA LALA shares new single “Memory” ahead of US tour dates

• 23rd Mar 2022

Lala Lala, the project of Chicago-based musician Lillie West, is finally starting her US tour dates in support of new album, ‘I Want The Door to Open’, released last Autumn via Hardly Art, and today releases a new single, “Memory.”

As Bandcamp describes, “[I Want The Door To Open’s] production has the rippling feel of a psychedelic experience,” and “Memory“ follows in-step with this sound. Co-produced by Andrew Broder, it opens with West’s alto intoning over murky, melancholy sonics, and in a quick turn, expands with synth, a jockeying beat, and warped vocals that hover in the background. “‘Memory’ is about ‘euphoric recall’ and letting go of fantasy,” says West. “Is it magic or a meaningful coincidence or are you just obsessed?” It features synth and piano by WHY’s Yoni Wolf, who co-produced ‘I Want The Door To Open’. 

The Lala Lala ‘I Want The Door To Open’ North American tour is underway. Lillie (vocals, guitar) is joined by Abby Black (drums/samples), Reno Cruz (guitar, vocals), and Yasmine Mifdal (keyboard, saxophone). A full list of dates can be found below and tickets are on sale now. New European dates are to be scheduled in due course.
