On her first full length album “Ultraviolet”, LEATHERS presents new music alongside previously released singles. In order to get a fresh taste of what to expect from the full-length, check out the audio of ‘Divine’ below! - An instant ear-worm, Shannon Hemmett has outdone herself on this track – not only delivering a perfect, radiant preview towards “Ultraviolet”, but engaging listeners . with irresistibly catchy instrumentals and resonating lyrics like ‘I demand your best behaviour / No, I won’t ask you twice’ – something longtime fans know and love her for.
On the album, Hemmett comments: “I got my hands dirty in every aspect of this record, not just with the songs and the lyrics, but making my own music videos, photographs, and designing an entire visual motif for the project. I find it so satisfying to create a total aesthetic.”
