Anna Calvi is back with a brand new album.

Titled ‘Hunter’, the double Mercury nominee’s third full-length is set to arrive on 31st August.

“I’ve waited 5 years for this moment,” she writes via Twitter, “waited until I felt this music was right, that I could stand behind it and feel it’s the best and most honest art I could possibly make. I gave everything to this record, all my love, all my passion, every inch of me is found in this music.

Now I let it go and I hope it finds you. Thank you for being so patient, thank you for being there. Primal and beautiful, vulnerable and strong, this is my record, Hunter.”

The news comes alongside a brand new track and video, ‘Don’t Beat the Girl Out of My Boy’, which you can check out below.

There’s also a big old tour taking place this September and October, with another show at London’s Roundhouse planned for next February. Calvi is already set to play the capital’s Heaven later this month.
