Last month we got our first taste of Brandi Carlile’s highly anticipated new album, By The Way, I Forgive You, when she dropped lead single “The Joke,” which you can revisit here.

Today, Carlile released “The Mother,” the second offering from the Dave Cobb- and Shooter Jennings-produced project.
“Welcome to the end of being alone inside your mind,” Carlile said of the track, and her experience with motherhood in general. “To some, this sounds like the realization of their most sacred dreams — true companionship. For some, this sacrifice is too much to bear and requires its own brand of radical forgiveness. For the most part and for me, it’s equal measures of both. I am not just a mother, but it’s all that I am.”
By The Way, I Forgive You will be released February 16. You can find the album’s track list and upcoming tour dates below the video.
