PJ Harvey Appears On New Shida Shahabi & Oliver Leith Albums

PJ Harvey features on new recordings by experimental composers Shida Shahabi and Oliver Leith, offering a glimpse of her work beyond her own albums. The collaborations come as fans await a follow-up to her 2023 LP, *I Inside the Old Year Dying*.

Harvey co-wrote and sings on “Wreath”, a six-and-a-half-minute drone track from Shahabi’s announced album *First Light At Hand*. The pair met after Harvey invited Shahabi to perform at a festival she curated, and have been friends since. Harvey also contributes to Leith’s *Doom And The Dooms*, recorded with Sean Shibe, GBSR Duo and 12 Ensemble and described as recreated from tapes found at a garage sale; the album is out now, while Shahabi’s is due on 5 March via Still Light.
