Ioanna Gika has shared the new single “Roseate” ahead of her upcoming tour with Deafheaven and DIIV (full dates below). The first song from her forthcoming debut solo album, “Roseate” was formed from a political premonition Gika had after a period of personal loss drew her back to her family’s home in their native Greece.
The single arrives on the heels of Gika’s lyrics getting quoted by Booker Prize winner and activist Arundhati Roy in her most recent best selling novel; as well as three songs from the album making their debut in Olivier Theyskens’s show at Paris Fashion Week. Her full length is slated for early 2019 via Sargent House, home to Chelsea Wolfe, Russian Circles, Earth, Emma Ruth Rundle and more.
