NEW ALBUM “ASTEROID” OUT NOW EVERYWHERE!
A special message from Anya:
My sixth studio album, Asteroid, comes out Friday and I couldn’t be more excited!
I wrote most of these songs over the past couple of years, and a couple of them very long ago. Waiting for a Difference and Gimme Sugar, both written around 2016, finally felt like they found the right sound, place, and time to be released into the world. I wrote about 70 songs, recorded 15, and narrowed it down to these golden ten:
1. Asteroid
2. Nothing Lasts
3. Waiting for a Difference
4. Girl Shit
5. Where the Darkness Is
6. Gimme Sugar
7. Sunshine or Shadow
8. UR Good
9. Beautiful & Stoned
10. London Blues
As I look at this track listing and think back on writing each one, I feel both excited and in a bit of disbelief. I can’t believe soon they will be not just songs I sing in my head or work on in private, but soon they will be yours, too.
I know I’m not alone when I say that the past few years have been filled with a lot of change and adaptation to new circumstances, concern about the future, the present, and the state of the world and our place in it. A lot of Asteroid is talking about existential things (like the droid in UR Good that is wondering if its existence has been purposeful and successful), and a lot of it is talking about connection and relationships—to family (Nothing Lasts), friends (Girl Shit), partners (London Blues), cities and places (Beautiful & Stoned), and, mostly, to ourselves (Asteroid).
Sonically, this album came out exactly as I had hoped. I labored over a handful of these for a long time, trying to get the feel right, and I’m happy to say that I’m very, very happy with the final result, thanks to all the people who worked on the album. I want to thank you all for the love and support. I couldn’t do any of this without you.

“Girl Shit touches on the amazing power of women—and anyone who has gone through betrayal or heartbreak—to grow stronger in spite of these things,” shares Marina. “This song speaks to the incredible power, mystique and strength of women. Girl Shit is about growing up and—thanks to a tight-knit crew of girlfriends—growing strong, in the face of adversity and betrayal.”

UPCOMING TOUR DATES:
Satellite heart (Anya’s Version) out now
Nearly 14 years after my song Satellite Heart appeared in Twilight: New Moon, changing my life forever—and inspired by Swift’s bold moves to own her catalog--I thought it was time to revisit Satellite Heart and make it my own. The result is fresh and new, while honoring the spirit of the original. I played guitars, Hilary James carved out a lovely cello part, Chris Hansen filled out the rest, and Gregg Williams mixed to perfection. I've been taking vocal lessons recently—for fun, and also to address some of the fears I have had around singing--and I have to say that this vocal take feels the most "me" of anything I have done. I hope you like "Satellite Heart (Anya's Version)."

Anya launches a patreon page
What does it mean to join / become a member of my Patreon?
Look at this as if you're joining my record label or production company. Since 2013, I've supported myself as an independent artist, collaborating with others on my songs, EPs, albums, videos and music-adjacent projects. As a direct result of your membership I'll be able to continue making everything I'm working on (i.e. music, videos, merch, my web series, my upcoming podcast, and the proverbial "more").
Why did I start this?
For one, I am prone to hiding out. I'd like to combat that, so starting this community and committing to being in regular touch and making things regularly and sharing them with the world feels like a great way to fight some of my old tendencies. I've also learned that when I connect and even collaborate with my audience, the results can be magical.
What's in it for you? (depending on which tier you choose)
* ALL new Patreon members will receive my upcoming full length live album Anya Marina - Live and Alone in New York before anyone else.
* exclusive updates (both written and video) not available anywhere else
* exclusive content: rare songs and demos, B-sides, and photos, as-yet unreleased music, videos
* member-only livestream shows and Q&As
* early access to music and shows
* Personal, handwritten correspondence
* access to my online chat community
* the knowledge that you are an integral and indispensable part of everything I make--of Anya Marina Productions, if you will, and of my indie label Good Rope Records.
THANK YOU for helping me stay more focused, grounded, and connected--not only to my work but to those of you experiencing it on the other end of the microphone.
