Today, Charlotte Cornfield releases “Living With It,” the second single and video from her new album, Hurts Like Hell. Much of Hurts Like Hell’s magic happens in the space Cornfield makes for harmony. Following the title track, on which Cornfield was  accompanied by Buck Meek, on “Living With It," she's joined by the one and only Feist, who she connected with through a group chat for mothers who are touring musicians. The accompanying video was made by Ali Vanderkruyk and Sara Melvin, and stars Celia Green, Augusto Bitter, Feist and Cornfield.

Listen to “Living With It” wherever you stream music, and pre-order the album ahead of its March 27th release on CD, LP, and limited lightning swirl Peak Vinyl from the Merge store in the US and UK. Canadian fans can order the album from our friends at Next Door Records!

Charlotte Cornfield, on “Living With It”:

I had secretly dreamed of having her sing on the record and mentioned it to [producer] Phil Weinrobe, who she is also friends with. When Phil reached out and she said yes, I sent her a couple of songs, hoping she would gravitate towards this one. She did, and she added her Feist magic to it, which is undeniable.

That magic meets Cornfield at her most vulnerable, just as she finds herself diving into the wreck of emotions beneath the surface of a painful memory, troubling its narrative and transfiguring the pain in Cornfield’s voice into something more complex and true, something that must have hurt like hell to have lived through, let alone to retell. Detailing the end of a relationship, Cornfield sings: “Maybe I’m just better at living with it than you are // But I’m the one crying in my car // Telling you to go when I want you to stay.”

This spring, Cornfield will embark on a short tour in celebration of the album's release. US dates will feature Hurts Like Hell collaborators Bridget Kearney (Lake Street Dive), El Kempner (Palehound), Evan Cartwright (Cola), and Nick Levine (Jodi, Great Grandpa).
