July 23 (UPI) -- Jessica Simpson performed on Today as part of the show's Citi Concert Series Wednesday. The singer, 45, released an EP, Nashville Canyon, Pt.1 in March, and dropped the single "Fade" on Tuesday.

Jessica Simpson is processing her breakup through music. On the same day she released her new single, “Fade,” the singer performed on Today. “In the face of heartbreak, in the face of life completely changing, music saved my life,” she said on July 23.

Specifically in her new song “Fade,” Simpson—who split from husband Eric Johnson earlier this year after 10 years of marriage—seems to be referencing her former marriage and possible heartbreak surrounding it with lyrics like, “You’re as empty as your promise / Go sleep alone in the bed you made.”
