Alana Springsteen has released the second installment of her independent EP, History Of Breaking Up (Part Two). The new project is available everywhere now.

Springsteen co-wrote all but one song on the project, as well as co-produced and played guitar on various tracks. History Of Breaking Up (Part Two) finds the 21-year-old documenting the varied dimensions of heartache.

Anchored by a title track co-written with Whakaio Taahi and Melissa Fuller, other writers on this collection include Sasha Alex Sloan, Chris LaCorte, Ryan Beaver, Jessie Jo Dillon, Geoff Warburton and more, plus her first outside cut by Shane McAnally, Ashley Gorley and Rhett Akins.

“When I look back on where I was as I was writing the songs for History Of Breaking Up (Part One) and then look at where I am now, it’s all a little surreal,” Springsteen admits. “This project started out as a way for me to find some peace and healing through the heartbreak, but it’s given me so much more: I’ve found a community of the most amazing fans who’ve helped me—and each other—to feel a little less alone. If Part One set the bar for me, I truly believe Part Two raises it.”

Springsteen, who played the Pool Club Rooftop Bar at Virgin Hotels Nashville last week (July 13), has independently reached nearly 55 million career streams to date. She is busy on the road this summer with upcoming dates at the Faster Horses Music Festival (Ju;y 22) in Brooklyn, Michigan; the inaugural TidalWave Festival (Aug. 13) in Atlantic City; and a stop at Barnato in Omaha on Aug. 18.
