"Lucky" was chosen as the album's first promotional single, being released on 11 August 2017. [2] Lenka stated on her website that she wrote the song after having her daughter last year and the song was inspired by feeling the love in a big way on her daughter. [2] The song had a digital video and was first released on 23 December 2016. [3] The video only covered partial lyrics of the song and featured Lenka singing and playing her guitar. [3]
The album's second single, "Heal", was released on 8 September 2017. [4] [5] [6] The song was written by Lenka and Sally Seltmann. [7] [8] 'The song is inspired by conflict in relationships and how to get through it,' said Lenka on her website. A music video was released on 13 September 2017 on her YouTube channel which featured her dancing with two dancers. [9] The video was directed by Lenka while her husband James Gulliver Hancock directed the artwork. [9]
Attune includes a paper-art diorama designed by James Gulliver Hancock which requires customers to make it by themselves. [10] Lenka released a video on 4 October 2017 on her website showing people how to turn the Attune CD cover into a pop-up diorama. [11]
The album failed to chart in any market, though Attune received positive reviews from some music critics. [12] The album was previewed and commented by Rolling Stone Australia on 11 October 2017. [13] Jonny Nail of Rolling Stone Australia said, 'Attune is a remarkable rabbit-warren of an album, sucking us in with its seemingly shallow light-pop accessibility and then keeping us captivated with the underlying darkness and thought-provoking themes that bubble to the surface with little warning throughout.' [13] Lenka was complimented for her invigoration and significant messages of the songs in Attune. [14]
