Katy B has shared a new song from her upcoming 'Peace And Offerings' EP.
The soulful Open Wound features Jaz Karis and finds the South London artist reuniting with long-time producer Geeneus, who worked on her past singles Lights On, Crying For No Reason and Aaliyah.
Unfurling around minimalist Afro-fusion-inspired production, the track finds the 32-year-old returning to her R&B roots and follows the P2J and Monro-produced Under My Skin, unveiled in August. Katy said:
"I think I consciously leaned into my RnB side more on this project. With the clubs being closed, it reflects what I’d be listening to and vibing to at home. My top ten songs are classic RnB songs, I’m a nostalgia head and I wanted to bring that throwback feel to the music."
Commenting on 'Peace And Offerings', her first collection of tracks since 2016's 'Honey' album, she added: "The 'Peace' is me taking myself away and having peace of mind and the 'Offerings' are the songs, the parts of myself I’m giving away. In a way, I’m reintroducing myself again: I am the offering.
"This isn’t a project necessarily made for the clubs, I’d say it’s a soundtrack to a pre-drinks soiree with your girls. That may surprise some people. These songs are a taste of what’s to come, I’m dropping Easter eggs all over this project. I want people to find an escape in these songs, I want them to feel hope but also the power within themselves."
The EP will arrive on October 29, ahead of her first London headline show in five years at Village Underground on November 15. Tickets are on sale now.
