Isolabella has released her brand new single ‘Backseat Lover’ today, and it might just be her most charming track yet. With warm vocals and soft, shimmering synths, it sounds like falling in love during the credits of your favourite film.
The song captures that post-date, heart-fluttering feeling — when everything feels sweet, silly, and a little bit cinematic. It’s got playful lyrics, catchy hooks, and a vibe that could turn even the most low-key bus ride into a main character moment.
Sonically, it’s soft but confident. Isolabella’s voice floats over dreamy production from Jun Yang, bringing emotion and sparkle in equal measure. The rhythm is subtle, but there’s movement that keeps the song light on its feet.
A standout moment in a rising star’s journey
We’ve loved watching Isolabella grow, and this single feels like a step into something bigger. Her music continues to blend bedroom pop charm with alt-pop polish. She’s not afraid to get personal, but she also knows how to have fun.
Recent support from BBC Introducing and Radio 1 shows she’s catching ears across the country. Earlier singles leaned into honesty and introspection. ‘Backseat Lover’ leans into fantasy — the dreamy, escapist kind that still feels true.
The lyrics tell a story we all know: one date, one moment, and suddenly you’re planning your life together in your head. Isolabella plays with that feeling without ever taking herself too seriously.
While the theme is light, the delivery is sharp. Every detail in the song feels considered, from the melody to the way the vocals wrap around the chorus. It’s cheeky, clever and totally addictive.
You can stream ‘Backseat Lover’ now. It’s the perfect soundtrack for daydreams, late-night walks, or texting your best friend about that person who smiled at you for a bit too long.
If this single is anything to go by, Isolabella’s next chapter is going to be golden. You can follow Isolabella over on Instagram…
