Norah Jones has announced her new album Visions, her first new (non-Christmas) LP in nearly four years.
Ahead of Visions’ March 8 release, Jones has shared its first single “Running,” which — like the majority of the album — is a collaboration with producer and multi-instrumentalist Leon Michels, a contributor to both Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings and the Arcs.
“The reason I called the album Visions is because a lot of the ideas came in the middle of the night or in that moment right before sleep, and ‘Running’ was one of them where you’re half asleep and kind of jolted awake,” Jones said in a statement.
“We did most of the songs in the same way where I was at the piano or on guitar and Leon was playing drums and we were just jamming on stuff. I like the rawness between me and Leon, the way it sounds kind of garage-y but also kind of soulful, because that’s where he’s coming from, but also not overly perfected.”
Visions, available to preorder now, marks Jones’ first album since 2021’s I Dream of Christmas; her last LP of non-seasonal music was 2020’s Pick Me Up Off the Floor. The singer has been busy since then though, reissuing her breakout debut Come Away With Me, covering Leonard Cohen, and releasing the one-off single “Can You Believe” in 2023.
Jones will hit the road this May for a brief tour in support of Visions, including a stop at Napa, California’s BottleRock festival.
