## Summary

Nicole Atkins has released “Singing In The Mirror”, the second single from her forthcoming album Drama. The song reinforces anticipation for the record, pairing Atkins’s established pop songwriting with production from Wilco multi-instrumentalist Pat Sansone and marking her first release for Chris Isaak’s Wicked Game imprint at Sun Records.

Atkins described the song as an unexpectedly immediate creation after attending a “Weird Al” Yankovic concert: returning home emotional and alone, she began singing its chorus while looking in the mirror. She says the track was completed in roughly ten minutes, with its original Omnicord slow-disco demo approach retained in the finished recording; Drama is due out on 28 September.
