SASAMI (aka Los Angeles-based musician Sasami Ashworth) is releasing a new album, Squeeze, this Friday via Domino. Now she has shared its fifth single, the short burst of a song that is “Make It Right,” shared via a video featuring Ashworth hugging herself, among other things. Heidi Bivens directed the video. Watch it below, followed by SASAMI’s upcoming tour dates, including shows with Mitski and HAIM.
Bivens is also the costume designer for the acclaimed HBO show Euphoria and the video was styled by Euphoria assistant costume designer Angelina Vitto, with make-up done by Euphoria make-up artist Alexandra French.
Ashworth had this to say about the song in a press release: “‘Make It Right’ is an ode to Fleetwood Mac’s more tantrum-y vibes with a hair of Crass-y marching snare. She’s a desperation bop about not being communicated with. I love a fuzzy riff. Need more guitar riffs in 2022. The video is a collaboration with some of my good friends and style icons Heidi Bivens, Angelina Vitto, Alexandra French, and a whole team of absolute legends. Heidi has an incredible eye for beauty, shapes, and mystery.”
Upon announcement of the new album in October of last year, Ashworth shared the songs “Skin a Rat” and “The Greatest,” the latter of which was one of our Songs of the Week. Then in January she shared its next single, the industrial sounding “Say It,” which also landed on Songs of the Week. Then she shared its fourth single, the melodic “Call Me Home,” which was also one of our Songs of the Week.
Ashworth self-produced Squeeze, with some co-prodution help from Ty Segall. The album also features Hand Habits’ Meg Duffy, King Tuff’s Kyle Thomas, Christian Lee Hutson, Barishi, Moaning’s Pascal Stevenson, Jay Bellerose, and No Home.
Ashworth’s self-titled debut album, SASAMI, came out in 2019 via Domino. Read our interview with her on the album.
