Jade Bird is back with her first new release since her self-titled debut album in April 2019. Her new single, “Headstart“, came at the perfect time on Wednesday when many may have found themselves looking for a bit of joyful escapism from the news cycle.
This new single has Jade trying to play it cool while waiting for a crush to catch up with her feelings. More than that, it feels like a bit of a promise of better things to come. When the chorus hits and you hear the guitar pick up alongside Bird’s massive vocal belting the lyrics, the song begs to be sung along to.
If “Headstart” is the kick-off to Jade Bird’s new album cycle, we can’t wait to hear the rest. Take a listen to the new single here.
