CALIFORNIAN newcomer Alix Page is set to share her debut EP ‘Old News’ in January, and has shared a touching new song ahead of its release.
‘Radiohead’ is the tale of a relationship gone wrong – one that finds Alix confronting heartbreak head on. Steadily building a reputation for captivating storytelling and vulnerable lyricism, ‘Radiohead’ sees her gentle vocal delivered against plaintive acoustic strums.
One for Phoebe Bridgers and Clairo fans, you can check it out below.
“[Radiohead] is proof that you can be completely over someone and then have a dream about them and fall right back into feelings you didn’t know you still had.” Page says.
She adds “Around this time last year I had a dream about me and an ex moving into an apartment and painting it together. We hadn’t spoken in months and I genuinely hadn’t thought about it in a while but it felt SO scarily real. I woke up flustered and heard the whole thing in my head before I even got out of bed; I wrote the first verse and chorus right away.”
“It wasn’t difficult to write technically but it made me face some hard truths during the process. I didn’t realise I still had some unresolved feelings about it until I was writing the chorus and saying those words out loud. That was kind of my way of coming to terms with the reality of that breakup and accepting the way things went. It’s really just a list of things I wish I could’ve said to that person at that moment.”
