Half Waif delivers new track 'Take Away The Ache'

Following on from a flurry of new offerings these last few months, Half Waif is now back again to share a brand new single.

The new track 'Take Away The Ache' follows on from her previously shared cuts 'Orange Blossoms' and 'Party's Over' earlier this year, and continues that same bright and effervescent sound she is known for.

Speaking about the new release, she said, "This is a song about the paradoxes of loving. How we ask the impossible of each other, how we promise what we can’t give. But I don’t mean this cynically - I actually find it quite remarkable. It’s kind of an incredible feat of imagination and will, the way we help each other transform our darkest moments into something bearable, like a game of make-believe. 'It’s not an ache,' you might say, 'it’s an ember.' And so together we stay warm by the fire of what we’ve created, lit by a sweet lie that makes it all okay for a while. To love is to believe in a kind of magic."
