If you hadn’t heard. American singer-songwriter – DEKKER – is back with “I Know, I Know”, the fifth single to be taken from his forthcoming album ‘Future Ghosts’ (due 16 February 2024).
A bouncy, if melancholic track with a catchy hook and an impulsive beat, “I Know, I Know” sees Brookln Dekker (aka Dekker and one-half of the Anglo-American Indie-Folk duo Rue Royale) succeed again as he gets right to the heart of a sentiment that we all know too well.
With heart-on-sleeve vocals, Dekker spins an ill-fated love story, unravelled at the hands of the narrator’s own self-destructive tendencies. “I know I’m a mess and I’ve lost my key,” Dekker sings,“but please don’t let me go, because with you is where I need to be”.
The fifth track to be taken from his awaited third album ‘Future Ghosts’ (out 16 February 2024), “I Know, I Know” finds Dekker continuing to work with his long-time collaborator Stefan Wittich (drummer/co-producer), and enlisting Zach Hanson (Bon Iver, The Staves, Whitney) in Wisconsin for mixing and mastering.
The single also arrives as the US-based artist has just returned from a successful headline tour in the UK. With a packed-out and energetic show at London’s The Lexington under his belt, along with his first spins on BBC 6 Music, Dekker is continuing to exceed his reputation as an exciting international artist unbound by country or region.
