Sophie Jamieson Announces New Album I Still Want to Share with Emotionally Charged Lead Single
Sophie Jamieson, the London-based songwriter, is set to release her highly anticipated sophomore album I Still Want to Share on January 17, 2025, via Bella Union. Co-produced by Jamieson and Grammy Award-winning producer Guy Massey—known for his work with Spiritualized and the Manic Street Preachers—this new collection is a raw exploration of love, loss, and the relentless longing for connection. The album delves into the anxiety that seeps into relationships, revealing the universal struggle of seeking home in others, even as we face the inevitable cycle of trying and failing.
The album’s lead single, “I Don’t Know What to Save,” perfectly captures this theme, driven by Jamieson’s deeply emotive lyricism. The track builds with a palpable sense of yearning, leading to an exhilarating climax as it searches for release. Jamieson describes the song as a desperate push for freedom, a reflection of the struggle to let go of a painful attachment. As she puts it, “It was an enormous push towards letting go. The unbearable pain of detaching felt like entering some kind of eerie, unknown space that turned out, upon arriving, to be not only totally survivable but like pure, fresh air.”
Accompanied by a visually striking video co-created with fellow musician and filmmaker Malena Zavala, the single sets the stage for an album that promises to be both intimate and expansive, reflecting the intricate complexities of human connection. Jamieson’s upcoming release marks a bold step forward, blending introspective storytelling with atmospheric soundscapes that promise to resonate long after the final note fades.
