IAN SWEET—the project of Jilian Medford— has announced her new album, SUCKER, out November 3 on Polyvinyl. To celebrate the news, she’s shared the lead single and video, “Your Spit.” The track was produced by Alex Craig (Binki, Claud) and Strange Ranger’s Isaac Eiger. It features pulsing drums and buzzing synths below Medford’s almost-taunt of, “Why don’t you kiss me like you mean it?”

Of “Your Spit,” Medford shared that it’s about “the joy and fear that surrounds new relationships. The excitement that’s also accompanied by doubt. But I’d be lying if I didn’t say the song is just mostly about making out.”

In other SWEET news, Medford will continue The Skirball Cultural Center’s 26th season of Sunset Concerts on Thursday, August 17, at 8:00 pm. The evening begins with musical selections by DJ The Witching Hours at 6:30 pm.
