Synth-pop band CHVRCHES‘ Scottish frontwoman LAUREN
MAYBERRY released her first 2 solo songs last year.
And with new track SOMETHING IN THE AIR she just launched her 3rd single of 2024. According to a press statement, all the songs will be on her solo debut LP, named Vicious Creature due to appear later this year.
Mayberry: “Something In The Air” is a song that really came out of nowhere. I was in London finishing another song with my friend, co-writer and producer Dan McDougall. We were taking
a break in the shared kitchen in the studio complex when a pretty iconic British musician, who I won’t throw under the bus here, came in and started making conversation about electricity, 5G and how it’s making us all sick. Dan and I went for a walk around the block before going back to the studio and were unpacking those theories, and why people want to believe them – and the chorus lyric just appeared.”
Something In The Air is a titanic tune, a splendidly orchestrated piece of
elevating music with a big chorus and Mayberry‘s crystal voice going sky-high.
