The Kills' Alison Mosshart unveils new solo cut "It Ain't Water"

13 May 2020, 17:35 | Written by Cerys Kenneally

Alison Mosshart, one half of The Kills, is back with "It Ain't Water", her second solo single.

"it Ain't Water" is Mosshart's second solo outing, arriving after last month's debut track "Rise".

The melancholic country ballad arrives with another visual created and edited entirely by Mosshart.

Mosshart wrote the new song last year with Alain Johannes (Queens of the Stone Age, PJ Harvey). She says of working with Johannes, "Working with Alain on "It Ain’t Water" was a blast. He’s such a talent and such a kind person. His mind is wide open. He understands and sees the beauty in imperfection, magic moments, accidents - the soulful human stuff, and the spirited super-human hard to explain stuff that makes a song great. Working with him was an honor, and also, hot damn he can play any instrument like a champ… like he invented the instrument himself. Alain Johannes IS music."

Alison Mosshart's "It Ain't Water" single is out now. It'll be released on 7" vinyl on 31 July with "Rise", and is available to pre-order now.
