Prepare to step into a world of quiet emotional resonance and long-awaited reunions because acclaimed Montreal-based artist Helena Deland has officially announced her stunning third studio album, Eternity Shrugs (arriving January 22, 2027, via Chivi Chivi), alongside a mesmerizing new single and music video: «Tip of My Tongue».

• The Anatomy of a Familiar Echo: Following her celebrated records Someone New (2020) and Goodnight Summerland (2023)—and hot on the heels of September’s lead single «How Do You Like Me Now»—«Tip of My Tongue» is a masterclass in atmospheric subtlety. Deland describes the song’s core inspiration with trademark poetic grace: “I’m thinking of a long-awaited, momentous run-in, the kind that has kept a part of the mind alert. Maybe you need to privately navigate how up-to-date on the other person’s life you’ve remained since the last time you spoke, or maybe you know a former version of them so well that the present-day one feels entirely, surprisingly familiar. The song was arranged with that feeling of familiarity in mind, like something that has been on the tip of my tongue for a long time.” Produced entirely by Deland and recorded in rural Quebec alongside longtime bandmates Francis Ledoux, Alexandre Larin, Lysandre Ménard, and Cedric Martel, the track feels both intimately grounded and vast.
• Visual Poetics: The accompanying official music video, directed by Jodi Heartz and Alex Blouin, mirrors the song’s delicate psychological landscapes, capturing quiet moments of reflection that complete the artistic puzzle of her upcoming record.

The MusicWayATX Verdict: “Tip of My Tongue” is a triumph of lyrical vulnerability, organic production, and poetic storytelling. Helena Deland continues to cement her place as one of indie music’s most vital voices.
