Today, she&#8217;s announcing her debut album Rotten Luck, out this summer. The cool lead single &#8220;Crossing&#8221; out now.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Crossing&#8221; is about her &#8220;favorite memories as a kid\u2026 whenever I crossed that bridge [between Lisbon and Almada] with my parents on a hot summer day.&#8221; Rotten Luck was written during a month-long Lisbon residency in January 2025 in a dilapidated fisherman&#8217;s building in a room with a broken window, dripping ceilings, and no Wi-Fi, which sounds sick (complimentary). It was then recorded in South London with Joseph Futak (Tapir!, Piglet). <\/p>\n<p>Watch the &#8220;Crossing&#8221; video below.<\/p>\n<p>TOUR DATES:<br \/>10\/01 \u2013 Bristol, UK @ The Croft<br \/>10\/03 \u2013 Brighton, UK @ Folklore Rooms<br \/>10\/04 \u2013 London, UK @ Shacklewell Arms<\/p>\n<p>Rotten Luck is out 8\/28 via Smoking Room \/ Lost Wisdom.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2503054\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image_2.jpeg\"   loading=\"lazy\"\/>Lucas John Eveleigh Edwards<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Meet the Lisbon-born, London-based singer-songwriter Natacha Sim\u00f5es, who&#8217;s been releasing poignant, pretty indie rock tunes inspired by Alex&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":515454,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[93,61,60,278],"class_list":["post-515453","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-music"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/515453","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=515453"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/515453\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/515454"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=515453"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=515453"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=515453"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
