Leah Wilcox Returns with New Ballad ‘Just A Bore’: A Reflective Exploration of Self-Worth

Emerging indie artist Leah Wilcox has just released her poignant new single ‘Just A Bore’, marking the beginning of a fresh creative era. Known for her raw vulnerability and introspective songwriting, Leah reflects on themes of self-worth and imposter syndrome in this haunting ballad. In contrast to her previous single, ‘Origami Flowers’, ‘Just A Bore’ shifts away from the grunge-tinged guitars and delivers a more delicate sound, weaving together piano, acoustic guitar, and Steve Lawson’s signature fretless bass. This latest track explores the societal pressures women face today, particularly focusing on how they affect self-perception and personal value.

‘Just A Bore’ showcases a more fragile and stripped-back approach, her upcoming track Blue is set to return to Leah’s “countrygaze” roots—blending alt-country and shoegaze elements for a powerful, gritty sound.

As an indie artist, Leah Wilcox continues to evolve musically and lyrically, drawing comparisons to Julia Jacklin and Beabadoobee, while creating a distinct voice in the indie rock and dream-pop scene. With ‘Just A Bore’, she has created a space for listeners to connect with their own feelings of inadequacy and uncertainty, offering solace and reflection through her evocative songwriting.
