Andra Day, the Grammy-winning singer and Oscar-nominated actress, has made a compelling return with her latest single, “Where Do We Go.” This soul-stirring ballad delves into the complexities of yearning for a reconnection with a former love while resisting the temptation to revisit a closed chapter.
In “Where Do We Go,” Day’s poignant lyrics reflect a sense of longing, capturing the emotions of someone passing through familiar territory and grappling with the desire to slide back into a past romance. The song unfolds with a delicate balance of vulnerability and resolve as Day acknowledges the impossibility of reopening a door that has been firmly closed.
This new release serves as the inaugural offering from Day’s forthcoming album, Cassandra, slated for release this spring under Warner Records. Described as Day’s “most personal body of work to date,” Cassandra promises to showcase the artist’s evolution and depth as a musician.
Notably, this album will be Day’s first project since the critically acclaimed The United States vs. Billie Holiday soundtrack in 2021. Her standout contribution to the soundtrack, “Tigress & Tweed,” co-written and co-produced with Raphael Saadiq, garnered recognition at the 64th Grammy Awards, where she secured the Best Compilation Soundtrack For Visual Media award. Additionally, her role as Billie Holiday earned her a Best Actress nomination at the 93rd Oscars.
Having made history at the 78th Golden Globe Awards in 2021, Day continues to captivate audiences with her powerful performances. Collaborating with BJ The Chicago Kid on “Crazy Love” from his latest album, Gravy, in 2023, Day showcased her versatility and continued relevance in the music industry.
As a testament to her continued impact, Day is set to perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing” at Super Bowl LVIII on Feb. 11, where Usher will headline the halftime show. “Where Do We Go” stands as a preview of what’s to come from Andra Day in 2024, reaffirming her status as a formidable artist with a distinctive voice and narrative.
