LA-based, Dallas-raised artist Liv.e, announces her sophomore album ‘Girl In The Half Pearl’ due February 10th via In Real Life. ‘Girl In The Half Pearl’ seizes on both the creative and personal liberation Liv.e has experienced in the time since her 2020 debut album ‘Couldn’t Wait To Tell You…’. The album’s 17 tracks are a document of self-examination, as she works through realizations prompted by grief and grapples with the dynamics of her role in the relationships in her life. Building upon the foundation she laid with CWTTY, ‘Girl In The Half Pearl’ bares her process of growth, forgiveness and reclamation of her sense of womanhood across an immersive soundscape. The album’s artistic shifts developed during her time experimenting with live performance in London earlier this year while under residency at London’s Laylow.

The 25-year-old artist first garnered attention with her 2017 EP, FRANK, and 2018’s Hoopdreams EP. Over the past year, Liv.e shared the standalone Mndsgn-produced single “Bout It,” along with a COLORS performance and released ‘CWTTY+’, the deluxe version of her 2020 critically-acclaimed debut album. She’s since performed alongside Earl Sweatshirt and Ravyn Lenae. Liv.e’s unique sensibilities have also caught the eye of the fashion world, marked by an appearance in a Miu Miu ad campaign photographed by Tyrone Lebon. Most recently, she was featured on the new Mount Kimbie single titled “a deities encore.”
