Metronomy's Anna Prior unveils new solo single 'Easier Alone'

While her formative band Metronomy recently released their eighth studio album 'Small World', Anna Prior has now returned to her solo guise to deliver a brand new track.

The new single ' Easier Alone' follows on from last year's debut cut 'Thank You For Nothing', and sees her continue her ventures down a more electronic route.

Speaking about the new offering, she said, "Easier Alone is a song about letting good things go. It's about all those healthy friendships, relationships, situationships that just become stifled under the weight of the expectation we place on ourselves. The relationships that you know would be nourishing and supportive, if only you could let someone love you without your own limits.

“But it’s true though, most things are easier on your own. Except moving house, tug o war and writing a song, at least in my case. I loved working with Jules Rosset again on this track - he helped me steer the music in a much more interesting direction (the song was called ‘piano thing’ for months before that) and most importantly, always responded to my maniacally composed emails of ideas within 5 minutes of me sending them - a perfect match for the over thinker!”
