Julia Jacklin has shared a new song and video, “I Was Neon,” from her forthcoming album, Pre Pleasure. Jackson directed the visual, and it was filmed in Melbourne. Watch below.

“I first wrote ‘I Was Neon’ for a band called Rattlesnack, a short-lived, much-loved 2019 side project that I played drums in,” Jacklin explained in a statement. “I rewrote it for my album in Montreal, during a time when I was desperately longing for a version of myself that I feared was gone forever. I was thinking of this song when I made the album cover, this song is the album cover really.”

Pre Pleasure is due out August 26 via Polyvinyl. Jacklin is also touring behind the album, which follows her 2019 album Crushing. Last year, Jacklin and fellow Australians RVG covered Björk’s “Army of Me.”
