Today, Katy Perry released her new single, “Daisies,” an exhilarating celebration of the resilience of the human spirit in the face of cynicism and adversity. The anthemic song is a call to remain true to the course you’ve set for yourself, regardless of what others may think.
The official video, which received a YouTube Premiere, features Katy performing “Daisies” in a breathtaking natural setting. Filmmaker Liza Voloshin shot the clip from a safe social distance.
“Daisies” is from KP5, as fans refer to Katy’s as-yet-untitled fifth studio album, which will be released on August 14 by Capitol Records. Beginning today, fans can pre-order “Daisies”-themed bundles at http://katy.to/KPshopPR. They can also visit Katy’s digital flower shop, Katy’s Daisies, where they can send virtual bouquets and messages to friends and loved ones. “Daisies” was produced by The Monsters & Strangerz (Zedd, Halsey, Maroon 5). Katy wrote the song with Jon Bellion, Jacob Kasher Hindlin, Michael Pollack and The Monsters’ Jordan K. Johnson and Stefan Johnson.
Today, Friday, May 15, Katy will perform live from home, and answer fan-submitted questions for Amazon Music’s live performance series on Amazon.com. Kicking off at 10:00 AM PT, Katy will perform some fan-favorite tracks and her new song, “Daisies,” for the first time ever live.
