Hi Our Basement,

My new single, “More Than My Heart,” taken from my debut album, This New Hurricane (out March 6th), is both an apology to a dear friend of mine and an attempt at self-forgiveness.

A few years ago, this friend was going through an incredibly difficult ordeal. At the time, I myself had next to no financial or emotional stability.

It killed me that I lacked the resources and the mental fortitude to be the kind of person I thought she needed me to be.

I worked with producer Adam Gallant and Kinley Dowling (Hey Rosetta!), who recorded strings on the track, to fully bring it to life through layered orchestration.

“More Than My Heart” is about accepting the limits of what is in our power to give to another person.

Sometimes all we have to offer is our heart, and that is enough.

I am looking forward to sharing more of my debut album with you ahead of its release.

Thank you for listening,
Brielle Ansems
