Grammy award winning musician Imogen Heap has announced the release of her new single 'You Know Where To Find Me'; the 6^th song from the Heap Songs Project on October 18^th. Alongside this at 10pm UK time on Thursday 18^th Imogen will host her first Google hangout. Appropriately named, 'You Know Where to Hangout' - will see Imogen perform the new song live, see the music video and answer questions but also bring in pianists from around the world (and some from Edinburgh also) for a live multi-piano improvisation. 

A Google spokesman said:

“Imogen has always been a pioneer of digital interaction with her fans, we're glad to take that to the next level face-to-face on Google+.” 

In June 2012, Artangel invited Imogen to ‘A Room for London’, a one-bedroom (boat) installation that overlooks the Thames from the roof of Queen Elizabeth Hall. First she installed a customised audio visual egg-shaped 'listening chair' into the Southbank Centre below, to gather information from passers-by about what the river Thames meant to them. Then, having absorbed this material, she spent a night in the boat and began to write the latest Heap Song, 'You Know Where To Find Me'.

Talking about 'You Know Where To Find Me', Heap says;

“There are many different personalities in this song because people experience the river in different ways. A place for play, for rest and for some, to visit the ashes of their loved ones. The Thames has its dark sides too; in lives and love it’s taken."  

Having part of the lyrics and music intact, the next stage was to record piano parts. As ever continuing to collaborate, Imogen turns to Edinburgh based, piano-owning Twitter followers to let her into their house, wear their clothes and record elements of the song. This was done in just one day in Edinburgh, involving 13 pianos, filming the music video as they went. Heap improvised and wrote the song on these pianos and finished it off at her studio in Essex. 

Alongside this, an illustrated, interactive online map commissioned by Artangel and created with Robur TV for The Space website allows visitors to explore Imogen's journey through Edinburgh via the pianos she played, from Imogen's own recollections of the people she met and the places she visited, to interviews with the pianos' owners describing what the instruments mean to them and the location in which they are found. 

The emotionally complex single comes off the back of a recent collaboration with Deadmau5 on the track 'Telemiscommunications' - which features on his latest album.  

Heap continues to write and release her 4^th studio instalment one track, one project, at a time.  Five singles have been released so far including a crowd inspired track, the world's first 3D-sound song and a project involving her musical gloves.   

Imogen’s forthcoming album is due out in 2013.
