Faye Webster Releases New Single 'Lifetime'
Webster's sold out U.S. tour kicks off next month!
By: Michael Major Sep. 20, 2023
Faye Webster returns with “Lifetime,” a stunning and sparse new single that comes with a companion music video directed by Kyle Ng of Brain Dead.
“Lifetime” comes on the heels of “But Not Kiss,” another single released earlier this summer to wide critical praise, which the New York Times said “sounds like a strange, woozy dream,” and Vulture named one of the Best New Songs of 2023 So Far saying “all the usual hallmarks of Webster’s songs are still there, from her soft-spoken delivery to that sighing lap steel, just shaken up and rearranged into a song full of (and about) quiet thrills.”
Webster’s completely sold out US tour, which includes 3 nights at Brooklyn Steel in New York and 2 nights at LA’s The NoVo, kicks off on October 17th and goes through November 17th. She has also announced a 2024 UK and EU tour. All dates below.

I Know I’m Funny haha, the 24-year-old artist’s most recent full length was also her most fully realized effort to date. Though she usually tackles album-making in a song-by-song approach, 2020 necessitated a more intensive recording process.
Webster immediately knew the Athens-based players she wanted to record with and headed into the studio with producer/mixer Drew Vandenberg (Deerhunter, Of Montreal, Kishi Bashi). They assembled a band including Harold Brown on drums, Bryan Howard on bass, Nic Rosen on keys and Matt “Pistol” Stoessel on pedal steel - one of the most reliable and essential musical elements of Webster’s records.
