Breakout pop sensation, Nessa Barrett has released her emotional new single, “club heaven” today via Warner Records. The touching anthem soars with the artist’s earnest and vulnerable exploration of grief and healing. It also coincides with the start of Barrett’s Fall headlining tour, which kicks off today at Austin City Limits Festival.
The pop artist has been forthright in the past with fans about mourning the loss of her best friend, Cooper. On the track, she pays tribute to their relationship. “It’s one of the most special songs I’ve ever written,” Barrett says. “I had to heal in order to be in a place to release it, and I can’t wait for everyone to feel it with me. This song is for anyone who is missing someone. This one is for you, Coop.”
In honor of Cooper, Nessa has released new “we hate paparazzi” merch — an idea they both talked about prior to his passing — available for pre-order HERE. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Coop’s Advice, to raise awareness about mental health and addiction.
“club heaven” is Barrett’s first release since collaborating with Whethan on “sick of myself,” which followed the release of her highly anticipated hell is teenage girl EP in July. That project is packed with the singer’s sultry brand of pop that is catching fire with fans.
