La Faute is the dreamy solo project of Peggy Messing, an artist, multi-instrumentalist, and singer-songwriter based in Toronto. She will release her new album Blue Girl Nice Day on May 26, which features the previously shared titled track.
“The Crown” is another track released ahead of its release, one that is described as being “a song from the point of view of someone haunting, or being haunted.” It captures this uneasy feeling in a devastating and equally haunting moody atmosphere and tone, delivered with precise execution, like a perfect blend between Alexandra Saviour, Aldous Haring, and Lana Del Rey.
Find a quote about the meaning behind “The Crown’ below, along with a stream.
I had a dream where someone I loved who had died was alive, and mad at me that I had missed their birthday. In my dream they had been living in another city for years and hadn’t thought to get in touch. This was my secret hope, that maybe they’d faked their death and were really alive, walking around somewhere else. I woke up feeling bad that I hadn’t bought them a present, and angry that they hadn’t mentioned they were still alive, which was honestly in character. I think about memories and ghosts and how maybe they are the same thing.
