“It’s an eclectic group of songs,” Pierson said in a statement, “Anthems, dance things, a disco song… Overall, the album has an upbeat vibe because I wanted to put out something positive in these dark times. I wanted to make it fun!”

“Evil Love” is the latest offering from Radios and Rainbows , following Pierson’s collaboration with Sia “Every Day is Halloween” from last fall. With a nostalgic, noir-esque twist and a story about getting revenge on a former lover, “Evil Love” is as dramatic as its Radios and Rainbows predecessor, and features a soaring vocal performance from Pierson.

“Sometimes evil love is the only love you need. A not so true tale of obsessive possessiveness and righteous revenge. I started out writing a song with the amazing Bleu McCauley with the idea of a song about forgiveness; but when our creative chemistries collided, the result was a noir thriller of a song set on the coast of Maine. And it’s one hell of a storm – so hang onto your hats for ‘Evil Love’ !,” Pierson wrote. Stream “Evil Love” below.

Kate Pierson may be gearing up for another solo album cycle, but she’s also got a slew of dates left with The B-52s for their residency at The Venetian in Las Vegas this fall. Get tickets to see The B-52s here .
