Sheryl Crow has shared the music video for her latest, “Alarm Clock,” which she co-wrote with Emily Weisband and producer Mike Elizondo. ‘Alarm Clock’ is off Sheryl’s first album in six years, Evolution, due out on March 29th.
Evolution marks Crow’s 11th album, and comes as a surprise to fans given that Sheryl stated that she wasn’t releasing anymore full-length albums following 2018’s Threads. Said Crow: “I started sending just a couple of demos to Mike, but the songs just kept flowing out of me and it was pretty obvious this was going to be an album. This music and these lyrics came from sitting in the quiet and writing from a deep soul place. I said I’d never make another record, thought there was no point to it. But this music comes from my soul. And I hope whoever hears this record can feel that … I did not want to produce myself this time. There’s a point where you get tired of what you do, you recognize your tricks, you despair of them. I didn’t want to deal with the emotional toil that goes into producing, the decisions, the effort, the time, being away from my kids. Mike loved the songs I sent him and wanted to produce. He brought a fresh approach and illustrated the songs in such a cinematic way, he’s so good with that. We did things quickly, the way old records were made, wrote the whole album in a month.”
