Lyrics:

Born to blossom with perfect anger, 
I’m own damn doppelgänger
Take your vitamin C, 
Don’t you wanna be free?
Don’t you wanna be a big girl baby?

If I sacrificed my vision in the name of tradition
Would you shower me with petals and call off the petition
For the girl you want, not the one that I am, 
Assign me to the fate of your perfect plan. 

I am lost, I am wild
I am nothing that you own
I am bored, I am a child
I am Gone Girl 2.0 

Oh, Uh oh, uh oh oh oh silly me,
I’d planned our life, watched our wedding tape on DVD

Don’t ask me why I’m done, don’t ask why I cry
Don’t ask me why my walls are so fucking high. 
I’m stuck inside an avalanche, trying to be patient
Wishing I could shake this need for validation
Big occasions, the celebrations, they scare me
I take my vitamin C, I just wanna be free
I just wanna be a big girl baby!

I am lost, I am wild
I am nothing that you own
I am bored, I am a child
I am Gone Girl 2.0 
Gone Girl 2.0
Oh oh, uh oh, uh oh, here we go again
Uh oh, uh oh, here we go again

Gone Girl 2.0

Salt Lake City-based Indie Singer-Songwriter Josaleigh Pollett will return on October 28th with “Radio Player,” an electronics-infused and Poltergeist-inspired new single. Here, Josaleigh is reunited with long-time collaborator Jordan Watko (Crowd Shy) for the first time since Jordan’s relocation to Japan, making this their first recorded output since 2023’s highly acclaimed “In the Garden, By the Weeds,” which NPR Music’s Bob Boilen featured on All Songs Considered.

Despite the distance between them, the pair opted to make their first cross-continent collaboration more ambitious and exploratory than what came before. Initially finding acclaim in 2020 with their ‘No Woman Is the Sea’ album, before going on to share bills with St. Vincent, Torres, Deep Sea Diver, DeVotchKa, Mini Trees, Hibou, and Kilby Block Party, “Radio Player” sees their sound continue to evolve. This new slowburning single merges analogue atmospherics, Indie Rock drive, and Pop melodies to create something that feels haunting, claustrophobic, and cathartic.

Speaking on their return, Josaleigh comments:

"Radio Player is a song about memory and fear, loosely based on seeing the movie Poltergeist at too young an age. It is a journey through the hallways of childhood that we leave a light on within. A pink light flickers on and beckons the listener through, releasing them changed and covered in ectoplasm five minutes later.

In true independent DIY fashion and similar to 2023's In The Garden, By The Weeds, this new song is recorded mostly at home between my Salt Lake City make-shift home studio, and Jordan's apartment in Japan. The difference this time is that we're bringing in more collaborations and new instrumentation. In addition to mixing and mastering, Nashville's Andrew Goldring helped with production and played some instruments on Radio Player, as well as being a part of the live band that played Kilby Block Party earlier this year. Radio Player really got its feet under it in a live band setting, and we tried to bring more of that to our production without losing the electronic-based production that Jordan is so fluent in. 

This is the first song we made together since Jordan moved to Japan in 2024, and instead of letting distance dampen our collaboration, we really tried to lean into the chaos and confusion of creating from different ends of different days while an ocean apart. I think a lot of that anxiety and newness mixed with the dedication of friendship drives this new music.”
