Chaos Angel is the upcoming third studio album by American singer-songwriter and actress Maya Hawke. It is set to be released on May 31, 2024 via Mom + Pop.

Background[edit]

In October 2023, Hawke sung alongside her father Ethan Hawke on a cover of the Willie Nelson song "We Don't Run" from his 1996 album Spirit.[1]

On Chaos Angel, Hawke reunites with regular contributors Christian Lee Hutson, Benjamin Lazar Davis and Will Graefe who she worked with on Moss. Hawke says that her third LP is an "altogether happier album" than its predecessor Moss.[1]

Release and promotion[edit]

The first single from Chaos Angel to be released was the alt-pop track "Missing Out" on February 14, 2024.[2] The track deals with Hawke's experience of living near Brown University where her younger brother attended college.[2] She partied with his classmates in an attempt to capture the formative college experience she never had.[1] She recalled feeling in "a different place in my life than these people I was around".[3] In a review for Exclaim!, Karlie Rogers called the track "a captivating, dizzying portrait, painted with careful precision".[4] The music video for "Missing Out" was directed by Alex Ross Perry.[5] On February 28, Hawke performed "Missing Out" on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon.[6]

On March 14, 2024, Hawke announced that the second single to be released from Chaos Angel would be "Dark" on March 20.[7]
