Acclaimed artist and songwriter Saint Harison has announced his brand new EP, ghosted, set for release on May 29 and available to pre-order/save now. Alongside the announcement, Saint has released his powerful new single, “glass houses.” A defining vocal moment on the project, the track showcases the unmistakable voice listeners have come to know and love while capturing the emotional core of the forthcoming EP. Produced by Akeel Henry, Daoud, and D’Mile — who currently holds the #1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 with Bruno Mars’ “I Just Might” — “glass houses” further cements this new chapter, highlighting the emotional depth and vocal strength at the heart of the project.
Speaking on the song, Saint shares: “I wrote ‘glass houses’ right at the end of making this project. I just felt like something was missing from the story but couldn’t quite figure out what it was until I went into the studio on that day. There’s really nothing more freeing than the acceptance of human-ness. I like the quote ‘hurt people, hurt people’ because love, empathy, understanding is so much more powerful than hate and revenge — I’m so happy I was able to put my philosophy of that into this song.”
Talking about the ghosted EP, he reveals, “I started writing this next project pretty much immediately after ‘lost a friend’ came out and It feels surreal that this moment has finally come. It’s been so important to me to make something that I can love forever and will make me proud for many years to come. I’ve been able to work with some creatives on this project that 6 years ago I would have cried if they looked in my direction. I can’t wait for you to hear the late nights, the tears, the overthinking, the healing, the spirals and the growth. It’s the most honest I’ve ever been in my music. Every track feels like a piece of a chapter I had to live through in order to write it.”
In addition, Saint has unveiled a stunning stripped-back live performance video for the track. Directed by Darrin James and produced by Freenjoy, the intimate session features Akeel Henry on piano and Marcus Reddick — known for his work on Beyoncé’s “Desert Eagle” from Cowboy Carter — on bass. Watch the live performance video for “glass houses” above.
Ahead of the EP’s release this spring, Saint will bring ghosted to the stage supporting Sam Smith’s residency at San Francisco’s iconic Castro Theatre (March 3, 4, 6, and 7). He will also perform at Rolling Stone’s Future of Music Showcase at SXSW on March 12 at Austin’s Moody Theater, alongside headliner Lola Young and fellow rising artists Sofia and the Antoinettes and Susannah Joffe.
