Maisie Peters has answered the eternal question of - are you a good witch or a bad witch? as she officially announces her second album.
Glinda better keep one eye open when she sleeps, however, as there seems to be some another benevolent magic-wielder in town, and her name's Maisie.
Following the teasing of several droplet singles over the last 12 months (including her very chaotic bop Cate's Brother, or as its also known, Stacey's Mom but for the gays), Maisie is now ready to let you into the fully-formed world of her sophomore album, The Good Witch.
Due to drop June 16 via Gingerbread Man/Atlantic, The Good Witch is the follow-up to Maisie's acclaimed debut, You Signed Up For This, which memorably debuted at Number 2 on the Official Albums Chart, after a chart battle with none other than Kanye West (!).
Announcing the release of The Good Witch, Maisie said: "This is my heart and soul, my blood on the page, the collection of stories that I’ve managed to capture in the past year. A true chronicle of my life in recent history, it is my own twisted version of a breakup album and it all draws upon the same couple of months’ worth of experiences and inspirations.
"It ducks and weaves between the real and surreal, and centres my own universe, of which I am of course the keeper of the keys and the holder of the cards - the good witch, if you will. It goes from light to dark in the flip of a switch and I hope takes you on a journey whereby the end you feel like you’ve gotten lost in someone else’s planet for a bit."
For the record, Maisie has worked once again with her frequent collaborator Joe Rubel, and has also welcomed Max Martin proteges Oscar Gorres (Troye Sivan) and Elvira Anderfjärd (Taylor Swift) into her world,
