After kicking off her solo ambitions with the vibrant initial offerings 'Are You Awake' and 'Shame' last year, Lauren Mayberry is now back once again to share a brand new single.
The new track 'Change Shapes' marks her first piece of new material so far in 2024, and was written by Mayberry, Matt Koma, Cleo Tighe and Evan Blair, and produced by Koma.
Speaking about the new release, she said, “I feel like I perform to the general public but also play a character inside the internal experience, because there is so much negotiation involved in my existence there. How do I keep people happy enough that they'll let me do the creative work that I want to? I feel quite fake and hypocritical sometimes because so much of the narrative around the band is "feminist", but my experience inside of it hasn’t been a lot of the time. I feel like I did all this work to make things function but when you DO adapt yourself in that way, it’s seen as manipulative, in order to get what you want.”
