LENNON STELLA DEBUTS “FANCY”
STUNNING NEW SINGLE + VIDEO OUT NOW
October 13, 2021 – Today, platinum-selling singer, songwriter, actress, and multi-instrumentalist, Lennon Stella returns with a brand-new single, “Fancy,” via RECORDS/Columbia – listen here. Co-written with GRAMMY Award-winner Malay (Lorde, Frank Ocean, Zayn) – who also produced the track – and longtime collaborator Simon Wilcox, “Fancy” showcases Lennon’s signature indie-pop sound and spellbinding vocals that shine throughout the dreamy and atmospheric pop-production.
The accompanying music video, directed by Amber Park (Camila Cabello, Katy Perry), acts as a visual extension of the song, characterized by sequences that take on a rhythmic, dreamlike quality and redefine the boundaries of reality. The surreal and floaty song is matched with ethereal, prismatic imagery that perfectly reflects the nature of the track, and the kaleidoscopic visuals complement Lennon’s dynamic and captivating vocals. Watch the video here.
“I’m so amped to have ‘Fancy’ out and floating around, both the video and the song,” Lennon shares. “I wrote it earlier this year with Malay and Simon Wilcox, two of my very favorite people. I was smiling ear to ear singing ‘I’m feeling that high vibration’ in the vocal booth so I hope everyone feels the high vibrations and loves the song like we do :)”
Of the music video, she adds: “The video gave the song a whole other level of life and was such a sick experience getting to make with the loveliest Amber Park.”
“Fancy” marks Lennon’s first new music following her critically acclaimed debut album, Three. Two. One., released in April 2020, which includes standout tracks “Kissing Other People” and “Jealous” as well as a solo version of Lennon’s song “Golf on TV” with JP Saxe. Three. Two. One. was named one of Vulture’s ‘Best Albums – Spring 2020’ with the publication declaring: “Stella’s solo debut [Three. Two. One.] proves her mettle in a pop field of play.” It was also proclaimed “Stella’s shining moment” by American Songwriter while Earmilk coined it “a formal introduction to a blooming high-profile artist.”
