Sad Girl Summer

Be Quiet

I wrote these songs a few years ago but never released them due to extreme self doubt.  I hated the way I sounded and played on all of these recordings but today I re-listened with fresh ears and I am so glad I held onto them because I was transported back to where I was 2 years ago.

It made me feel very sad to think about the negative ways in which I viewed myself - these feelings embodied in some very self deprecative lyrics.  Now that I am older I'm trying to be kinder to myself and have more courage to share the music I was once too insecure to release.  

By all means I still do not love my performance on this ep and know there is much to be improved upon but I am learning and growing and very keen to start working on new things.

Huge thanks to David Stewart and Jordan Shakespeare for recording and mixing! you are both bright, shinning stars

The track reflects upon a time of being left out and how those certain events question our self
worth. “For many people summer is for partying and being hot” Clancy Davidson explains “For
me, this is not the case. Summer is for sadness and social anxiety. The summer of 2020 really
started off with a friend not allowing me to their party because I did not fit into the “curated vibe.”
As you might imagine this caused a lot of self doubt (and pity) setting the tone for a sad girl
summer.”

Jangly guitars and tongue in cheek lyrics coupled with a quirky carnivalesque chorus work
as a fun contrast to the self-deprecating nature of the song. “Dedicated to those of us who
feel a bit lame sometimes, it’s sincere and silly in equal measures. But above all this song is
dedicated to my Honda Jazz.” - Clancy Davidson.
