British/Greek singer, songwriter and producer Eleni Drake today announces her new studio album Chuck, out on October 31 via MNRK. The news comes alongside piercing new single, ‘Half Alive’.

Previously a completely self-produced and self-released artist, Eleni has worked with co-producer Frank Colucci (AShnikko, Ethel Cain) on her full-length label debut, Chuck,  which pushes her sonic palette into richer new territory as she finds revelation and growth amongst the rubble of a previous relationship. It’s a stunningly human portrait of love and pain, and how those two states can interconnect in the most disarming and sometimes destructive of ways, whilst also building a nurturing musical world to fall into and find solace within.

On the new single, Eleni says “It’s about the conflict between missing someone, yearning to be alone, and ultimately realising they are not right for you and understanding a situation is far more manipulative and disappointing  upon reflection.”
