I wrote The Walls Are Way Too Thin about a time in my life where I felt like i’d lost control of where I was heading and struggling a little with finding my place in the world. It was a very strange period, I’d just moved to London away from my family and all of a sudden everything that I knew to be normal had changed completely. I moved on a whim into this little dingy room. I met some cool people but this place was pretty lonely and claustrophobic. I’m such an awkward person and even though I really liked my housemates I still felt worried about small talk in the kitchen or passing each other in the corridors. I had some fun times there, but I felt like I was mostly confined to my room whilst chaos was going on in the flats or streets around us. To avoid confronting how I was feeling I’d sneak out of the flat and go on train journeys to see my mates, get drunk, then come back hungover through the night or morning. I wrote most of Walls and the songs that come next on those trains. It was my place of therapy, in the middle of nowhere.

I wanted the music video to reflect how I felt stuck in my room with my own internal anxiety rising. The idea of being trapped in an air vent in a burning building came from that feeling of claustrophobia and panic that I felt throughout my time living in the flat. Shooting the video was chaotic, my elbows and knees look quite different now after 8 hours of crawling back and forth. The fire blast in the vent was totally real too !!

The Walls Are Way Too Thin

Some Kind Of Love

This track is my absolute fav, it’s a f*ck you to the guy that was going out with my bestie Scarlett and was written as they were breaking up. The relationship was totally one sided Scarlett was all in & had pretty much planned their future & it was pretty clear to me that he was stringing her along until breaking up. I was her closest confidant and so I knew everything she was feeling, and i'd see how passive he was with her at parties first hand. She vented to me for probably about a year and so I went through all the stages of a break up with her and watched as she slowly realised her worth and that he wasn’t worth her tears anymore 💘 I wanted to write this one from her point of view. It’s a pretty positive song as it’s about her finally letting go, realising his many faults and taking back her life 🤍🦋

I rly love the video for this track too, obviously the song is about Scarlett so she had to be in the video - especially after being named an ‘emotional grim reaper’ lol. The two of us break into an airport hanger, steal and spray paint an arctic truck, then I perform on the back of it as Scar drives it down the runway. It was honestly the most fun and so jokes. I was clinging on as I was being thrown about. If u look closely the guitar I throw off the truck is the same one from my very first video for Deep End and the banners were at my London shows at Omeara !!!! I really hope it feels as empowering to watch as it did to be on the back of it performing!! Loved how ironic the bad British weather line is when we got the nicest sunset going for the video. Hopefully u enjoy it 🤍xxxx

The Worst Person Alive

I’m Sorry, Now Say It Back

Hurricane

It’s the story of a man who’s always reached too far and burned too hot. He’s got a temper he can’t tame and a heart that’s hard to read, and the woman he loves has taken the worst of it. Every verse is a look in the mirror — the anger, the pride, the regret. He’s finally seeing how much she’s carried, how much she’s cried, and how his words have left scars he can’t erase. Now he’s standing in the quiet aftermath, realizing that love’s still there, but maybe it’s too late to make it right.

To Late

Does It Feel the Same

G Flip - I Am Not Afraid

Here we go! Excited to share my next track “I AM NOT AFRAID” 😝
Whether it’s getting out of a toxic relationship, coming out to your family, getting bullied etc. Life throws shit at you and you have to be brave. You have to stand tall and rise above it. 

For me, I didn’t write I Am Not Afraid about one situation I have experienced, I wrote it about multiple situations that I’ve faced throughout my life.

Shoutout to my mate Ariel Rechtshaid who co-produced this jam with me, was always a dream to work with him since I pissed my pants in a HAIM mosh.

Lyrics:
I am fine feeling lonely
I found comfort in what’s here 
Ya know I don’t mind that you’re out the door
I’ve picked myself up off the fucking floor
This here baby, this here babe, ain’t love

So take me as I am, watch me as I go
I’ve been sailing seas ‘fore you jumped afloat 
And now you’re standing on the sidewalk calling Georgia to come alive
But she’s been dead the whole time
And I tried, and I cried

I am not afraid to do this alone
I know that it scares you but I am my own home
I am not afraid to do this alone
I know that it scares you but I am my own home
And I’ve cried
I am not afraid to do this alone
I know that it’s scares you but I am my own home

Don’t care if you don’t like me 
Ya know you’re full of shit
I’m standing on 2 feet now, It was hard to admit
You were part of my story 
A world that we had built
But I have overcome it and any acknowledge that you were not,
Safe to love so, I’ll run with the wind and I’ll grow
A set of wings and free fall 
Into a world where i’ll own all

So take me as I am, watch me as I go
I’ve been sailing seas ‘fore you jumped afloat 
And now you’re standing on the sidewalk calling Georgia to come alive
But she’s been dead the whole time
And I tried, and I cried

I am not afraid to do this alone
I know that it scares you but I am my own home
I am not afraid to go this alone
I know that it scares you but I am my own home
And I cried
I am not afraid to do this alone
I know that it scare you but I am my own home

Change in love, change in love 
Changed me
Change in love, change in love 
Changed me

And I have lost all that I had found
Picked myself up off the fucking ground
Yeah this here baby, this here babe ain’t love
Love, Love

I am not afraid to do this alone
I know that it scares you but I am my own home
I am not afraid to do this alone
I know that it scares you but I am my own home (x2)
And I tried, And I cried
(Change me) x2

Hyperfine

Hallucinogenics (feat. Lana Del Rey)

Invariably woven around gentle acoustic guitars and unassuming but essential drumlines, 23 year old, Azure’s songs are earthy and timeless, anchored by her rich, resonant voice. Born into a big, Australian-Lebanese family in a coastal town near Sydney, you can hear the musical influence of her childhood in every song.

Though she was close to her family and friends at home, Azure found herself connecting more to her surroundings than to the people. This sparked a life-long interest in nature and what it can teach her. “I’m definitely more drawn to music that I can really feel has a depth to it,” she says. “With my music, I kind of want people to just be able to feel things. So when something pulls my heart, that's what connects with me.”

She hopes to inspire that spark in others, stressing that everything she writes and creates comes from a place of real emotion. “I want everything I create to have an air of effortlessness to it,” she says. “Whatever the story I am telling, I hope for the person listening to receive those feelings with ease, as if they flow straight from my body to theirs, like a warm embrace for your heart.”

The lead single from her ‘Running with the Wolves’ EP is bathed in that warmth. Dizzy is half personal pep-talk, half ode to the possibilities of life and love. With its chest-thumping chorus, rich harmonies and gentle twinkles, there’s a hopeful feeling underpinning the song. Listening to it is like taking the first step on a life-changing journey

Some Kind Of Love
