"A glorious running of pure pop's emotional gamut, 'The Good Witch' is an accomplished, bewitching listen" – DIY ★★★★
Ahead of her debut performance on Glastonbury's iconic Pyramid Stage this weekend, Maisie Peters has today released her hotly anticipated new album, 'The Good Witch'. Listen HERE.
Featuring singles "Body Better", "Lost The Breakup" and "Run", Maisie's second studio album, 'The Good Witch', is the official follow-up to her No. 2 BRIT Breakthrough certified debut, "You Signed Up For This", and in many ways the older, wiser and scorned counterpart. Written in real time during her whirlwind 2022 touring schedule, "The Good Witch" served as a time capsule for Maisie, enabling her to chronicle a period of time in which she was searching for balance between career highs and personal lows. Where "You Signed Up For This" was an observational, coming-of-age record, "The Good Witch" finds Maisie at her most introspective and self-reflective, drawing inspiration from the works of Joan Didion, J. M. Barrie, Greek mythology and Western movies; the record explores the complexities of romantic breakups, the preciousness of friendship and true value of self-worth.
Exhibiting a newfound confidence, sharper storytelling and greater artistic ambition, Maisie created "The Good Witch" across London, Suffolk, Stockholm, Bergen and LA, alongside Oscar Görres (Taylor Swift, Troye Sivan), Two Inch Punch (Sam Smith, Jessie Ware), Matias Tellez (girl in red), Brad Ellis (Jorja Smith, Little Mix), Joe Rubel (Ed Sheeran, Tom Grennan) and Elvira Anderfjärd (Tove Lo, Katy Perry).
Maisie explains:"This is my heart and soul, my blood on the page, the collection of stories that I've managed to capture in the past year. A true chronicle of my life in recent history, it is my own twisted version of a breakup album and it all draws upon the same couple of months' worth of experiences and inspirations. It ducks and weaves between the real and surreal, and centres my own universe, of which I am of course the keeper of the keys and the holder of the cards - the good witch, if you will. It goes from light to dark in the flip of a switch and I hope takes you on a journey whereby the end you feel like you've gotten lost in someone else's planet for a bit."
Following a sold out run of headline shows and stadium supports slots for Ed Sheeran earlier this year, Maisie Peters returns to Australia in March 2024 for headline dates in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne.
