The nice people at Rough Trade are in a celebratory mood today. It's nearing the release of Alela Diane's new album 'Alela Diane & Wild Divine', which arrives on April 4th.

To compliment that fact, the label are giving away the first track on it, 'To Begin'.

You can download or stream the track via the widget below.

Here's what the lady herself has to say about it: "I wrote this song after embarking on an afternoon of hypnosis in my hometown -- the lyrics reference the journey I took during my alter-reality & the things that became clear…"

The album was recorded in the home studio of producer Scott Litt (Nirvana, REM, The Replacements) in Venice Beach, CA, who ceased his seven-year dormancy to work with the band.

Meanwhile you can always catch Alela Diane & Wild Divine live at these shows:

  • 12th May - London, Scala
  • 13th May - Manchester, Band On The Wall
  • 14th May - Brighton, Pavillion Theatre
