24 August 2023 (Toronto, ON) — Feist has today unveiled a video for “Of Womankind”, a track from her new album Multitudes, using footage filmed during her current Multitudes World Tour which reaches Europe later this week. The European dates includes Feist’s first UK shows in six years, at London’s Roundhouse on September 9th and Manchester O2 Victoria Warehouse on September 11th.
Multitudes was the first live show to be designed with 360-degree immersive sound incorporated into the production. The album was also recorded with immersive sound designed into its production – in pristine audiophile grade Dolby ATMOS – by multi-Grammy nominated producer-engineer Robbie Lackritz.

Says Feist: “After a springtime of zigzagging the East Coast with intermittent blasts of festivals in between lake swimming and bonfires all summer, we’ll be crossing the Atlantic for a run in the Fall. Please come and surround me in the round – and I’ll surround you with an array of speakers.”
Largely written and workshopped during an intensely communal experimental show of the same name through 2021 and 2022, the songs on Multitudes developed in parallel with and were deeply influenced by the mutuality of the unconventional experience. The Multitudes live production, developed by Feist with legendary designer Rob Sinclair (David Byrne’s American Utopia, Peter Gabriel, Tame Impala) involves a subtle disarming of normalized conventions between performer and observer.
Recorded in a bespoke residential studio in the California Redwoods, Multitudes was produced by Feist with longtime collaborators Robbie Lackritz (The Weather Station, Bahamas, Robbie Robertson) and Mocky (Jamie Lidell, Vulfpeck, Kelela), with additional production by Blake Mills (Bob Dylan, Fiona Apple, Perfume Genius) on “Borrow Trouble”, “I Took All My Rings Off”, “Of Womankind”, and “Become the Earth”.
