Description
Indie Exclusive Double LP on Black Vinyl in Gatefold Jacket + Insert
Florida-born multimedia artist Ethel Cain returns with her sophomore album Willoughby Tucker, I’ll Always Love You. A prequel to the critically acclaimed Preachers Daughter, the new album recounts the story of Cains first love, Willoughby Tucker, and their humid, laden romance. Hayden Anhedonia, the creative force behind the entire Ethel Cain project, has spent the past several years assembling the album in her home studios from Coraopolis, PA, to Tallahassee, FL, all the while selling out tours and playing festivals worldwide, cementing herself as a singular artistic voice on the rise.
Nettles is the first single from the album: This song and the last track on the record were both written the same week, the very first week I moved into the house in Alabama where I finished Preachers Daughter, says Cain. In similar fashion to Preachers Daughter (specifically A House In Nebraska and Strangers), I wrote what essentially became the beginning and end of the story without realizing it. What were originally just little vignettes of emotion I was feeling at the time ultimately became the tent poles for a larger narrative. Nettles became a dream of losing the one you love, asking them to reassure you that it wont come true and to dream, instead, of all the time youll have together as you grow old side by side. Every once in a blue moon, it feels good to slough off the macabre and to simply let love be.
Indie Exclusive version includes 9″ x 12″ Insert.
Released: 8/8/25
