With her Redemption Tour kicking off at Tamworth Festival next week, Tori Forsyth has announced her debut album Dawn Of The Dark (Produced by Shane Nicholson) will be released Friday May 25th. It will feature the second single ‘In The Morning’ which is released today and along with first single ‘Grave Robber’s Daughter’ and previously unreleased ‘Kings Horses’, available as an instant grat track with album pre-order.
The alt-country artist who will also perform at this year’s SXSW Festival, has also shared the video for the single which even though was a last-minute addition to the album, still beams with honest songwriting and musical maturity far beyond her 22 years.
“‘In The Morning’ was a last minute addition to the record so it’s funny that it’s risen to the top as a second single,” says Tori. “The song has a few different meanings to me, it was a written in a darker time of my life and there’s definitely that theme to the song, but I think it’s also a song that basically rides on gender equality, the idea that a woman can do everything a man can.”
Directed by Brad and Rick from Spilting films, the ‘In The Morning’ video is Tori’s second collaboration with the duo who perfectly capture her gritty persona and complex song-writing subject showcasing dual personalities across a dazzling dreamscape. The filmmaker’s transport us through twisting mazes and deserted dunes, both located on the fringes of Newcastle.
