Bitch Shares “Nothing In My Pockets”

Bitchcraft (Kill Rock Stars), the long-awaited new album from legendary queer music icon Bitch is due out this Friday, February 4. The new collection urges listeners to think about the state of the world, about evil politicians, about what it means to exist as a woman, and how to find joy along the way. In celebration of the release, Bitch has released an electrifying video for new album track “Nothing In My Pockets” today. An early version of the song was crafted with Melissa York (Team Dresch, The Butchies) years ago and was later reworked for the album. “It’s about an emptiness after a breakup. Almost like withdrawal from a drug,” explains Bitch. “When you just feel numb, like nothing is real. Like there is NOTHING.

Bitch started writing Bitchcraft eight years ago over the course of several moves and political movements. Eventually landing in LA, she assembled a creative coven to complete the project including Anne Preven (Beyonce, Madonna, Demi Lovato), God-des, and Roma Baran (Laurie Anderson) who all advised her on the production and arrangements. She also co-wrote several songs with Melissa York (Team Dresch, The Butchies) and Faith Soloway (Transparent).
