serpentwithfeet shares his first new single, ‘Receipts (feat. Ty Dolla $ign),’ since releasing 2018’s soil, out today via Secretly Canadian and Tri Angle Records. “I began writing ‘Receipts’ when I first moved to Los Angeles last summer,” says serpentwithfeet. “I was and still am mystified by the city – the mountains, the men, the hummingbirds. I played an early demo for Ty Dolla $ign and he asked to join me on the track. This song carries a lot of weight for me because it’s a snapshot of two brothers rhapsodizing about unforeseen romance. Ty is a huge part of my LA story so ‘Receipts’ feels like a perfect document.” Having recently wrapped up a string of performances with Bjork at The Shed in New York City, supporting Rosalía on her North American tour and his first ever Australian tour, serpentwithfeet will head to Europe later this summer to play End of the Road Festival, Electric Picnic, and Lollapalooza Berlin. His headline show at Earth in London goes on sale today as well.
“serpentwithfeet deeply engages with the complex membranes between the self and a loved one, the self and the world. Few…attempt this much nuance in articulating love; Wise’s success in his ambitions feels like a gift.” – Pitchfork
“Josiah Wise has forged a private, idiosyncratic mysticism from gospel imagery, personal obsessions, androgynous vocals and productions that turn the studio into church, fun house and asylum at the same time.” – The New York Times
