Rostam has shared the title track of his upcoming second solo album.
Changephobia is a chilled, atmospheric offering, which unfolds around swirling synths and a sax solo from Henry Solomon. It'll feature along with the previously shared singles These Kids We Knew, Unfold You, and 4Runner. The former Vampire Weekend member said:
"Changephobia was one of the last songs I finished writing for this album. The chorus came to me sitting at the piano in my living room; I spent weeks picking up and putting down ideas for the verses. One day I sat down with an acoustic guitar, feeling close to giving up on the song altogether: all of a sudden a new melody, a new feeling, and new words came out of me and I felt like I could be honest with myself about what I wanted to say. The song Changephobia is partly about something we can all be guilty of, avoiding our own feelings. I think of it as a reminder not to."
The follow-up to the 37-year-old's 2017 debut 'Half-Light' is due out on June 4 via his own label Matsor Projects (via Secretly Distribution).
