“I love, admire and respect Fugazi with my whole heart… always have,” the Warpaint bassist shared her admiration for the band with The Line of Best Fit. She also added, “The sentiment of “I’m So Tired” is deeply moving and extremely relatable. It was such a pleasure and a pleasant surprise I was able to pull this off. I hope I did it justice, it sure was FUN (and that’s the point of it all). Big love and kudos to Fugazi forever.”

It has been around over months since the 38-year-old musician graced the indie fans with music. Her last work was a collaboration with Trentemøller for the track “Try a Little” to which jennylee contributes her vocal.

More good news for Warpaint’s fans: the bassist hinted back in December 2019 that the four-piece were cooking new material for the follow-up of 2016’s ‘Heads Up‘. Even though Warpaint has not released anything under their own name since 2016, they went on tour as an opening act for Harry Styles’ Asia tour in 2018, while dropping a track titled “The Brakes” as a soundtrack for horror film ‘The Turning‘. The four members also composed an original score for podcast ‘Motherhacker‘.
