Zola Jesus Announces New Album Okovi, Releases “Exhumed”

Zola Jesus was confirmed as a performer at this year’s Basilica Soundscape festival in upstate New York yesterday, and has now announced her new album Okovi. It’s out September 8 on Sacred Bones. She’s also shared a new song called “Exhumed,” which is steeped in dissonant, rough synth textures and an alarming, abrasive string section.

Zola Jesus is embarking on a North American tour this fall as well. Listen to “Exhumed” and check out the tour dates below.
