Atlanta dream pop artist Bathe Alone will return with their new album, I Don’t Do Humidity, which will be released on June 7th via Nettwerk.
It’s an album that sees Bailey Crone unpack her recent divorce and toxic friendships. With the news comes the release of single “Blame Me.” It’s a vibrant and colorful 80’s inspired synth-pop jam with some colorful elements of production and a bright-minded optimism despite darker themes running through it.
Speaking on the track, she adds:
“This song is a reflection on my response to being gaslit for calling out the truth during what would ultimately get the ball rolling on the divorce. I brought up my suspicion about some unacceptable behavior in my marriage, and my husband completely went off the deep end. He stormed out of the situation and basically tried to make me feel crazy for interpreting his behavior as infidelity. I was trying to find a resolution, but he didn’t want to acknowledge his contribution to the problem. It felt like all of a sudden there were two teams, and I was outnumbered by one. We had gone to couples therapy, and the therapist even pointed out flaws in his thinking about this other woman. In this song, I’m looking back, knowing my gut was right the whole time.”
