SNAIL MAIL releases ‘Adore You,’ the demo version of the title track from critically acclaimed album Valentine
Snail Mail (Lindsey Jordan) has shared ‘Adore You,’ the early demo version of the lead single and title track off of her critically acclaimed new album Valentine – out now via Matador Records / Rhythmethod. Featuring early lyrics and a different structure, the whispered, vulnerable lo-fi version is a sonically opposite yet equally devastating flipside, proving that in any configuration ‘Adore You‘ is as powerful a lovelorn torch song as they come.

Shortly after Jordan released Valentine, she was diagnosed with vocal cord polyps requiring surgery and a North American tour postponement. Today, you can listen to her first interview since the surgery on the Sonos Radio show Sheroes: Mixtape Memoir. On the program, Lindsey discusses some of her favorite love songs with Sheroes host Carmel Holt. Last week, Jordan also released a live full band performance video of ‘Valentine,’ performed at the Armour-Stiner Octagon House.
Valentine, the second album from Snail Mail, has emerged as one of 2021’s most celebrated releases, featuring prominently in best of the year roundups from New York Times, Vogue, NME, Pitchfork, The New Yorker and many others. She made her late-night television debut with an appearance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert. On release, Valentine landed at #1 on the Billboard Emerging Artist Chart and #61 in the Billboard Top 200 in the US, and entered the Top 40 album charts in the UK and Australia.
Valentine was written and produced by 22-year-old Lindsey Jordan and co-produced by Brad Cook (Bon Iver, Waxahatchee). Written in 2019-2020, the album is filled with romance, heartbreak, blood, sweat and tears. But Valentine is poised and self-possessed, channeling its anger and dejection into empowering revenge fantasies and rewriting the narrative of its own fate.
