Tim Heidecker Releases 'Nothing feat. Weyes Blood'

Coming off his recently released title track for his upcoming up fifth studio album, Fear of Death, Tim Heidecker releases his second single, “Nothing feat. Weyes Blood.”

The song was co-written by Heidecker and Weyes Blood’s Natalie Mering. The title track, “Fear of Death,” also features Mering whom I sense had a lot of contributions to the new album.

Heidecker says he started writing the song with a religious, angelic sound in mind but turned into something different, but still something he was very happy with.

“I wanted to write a religious-sounding song about agnosticism. I wrote it a little poppier/jauntier, but working with Natalie and Drew [Erickson], we smoothed it out into something more haunting and (in my opinion) beautiful. We crammed the session into the end of an overdub day/night, just the three of us doing it live with Natalie adding those incredible angel harmonies over the bridge. Drew and [Jonathan] Rado later added all sorts of goodness to it. The second verse is a very literal description of my experience at the SXSW premiere of Us. I’m pretty proud of this one in general. I hope it delivers some goosebumps.”
