Arooj Aftab announced in December that she had signed with Verve following the breakthrough success of her third studio album, April 2021's Vulture Prince.

Now the Brooklyn-based, Pakistani, neo-sufi singer-songwriter has announced a deluxe, expanded version of the record, due out June 24 on Verve, and shared its first new single, "Udhero Na," featuring Anoushka Shankar on sitar and Maeve Gilchrist on harp.

Aftab wrote the "Udhero Na" — whose title translates to "please undo" — more than 15 years ago, but its current iteration is an updated version.

The featured instrumentalists emphasize the mournful tension in her voice as she begs a former lover to release her from their shared memories.
