Once in a while we get to feature an artist who has already made a huge splash, but who has since moved to releasing their work independently. And, so it is that we can today post that Victoria (Little Boots) Hesketh is back with a brand new single – ‘Crying on the Inside’ which has been released on her own label.
There’s no surprise that the person whose debut album, Hands, was and still is an out-and-out pop classic has given us another perfectly realised pop tune.
Victoria said about the single, “”Crying on the Inside” is about putting on a brave face when running into personal challenges; something I think we can all relate to, especially in the last year or so. I personally love when songs reference other songs or records, which this does. I actually wrote the song some time ago with Carly Rae-Jepsen in mind, but she didn’t take it and the track has always been one of my favourites as one that I personally relate to. I shared the original demo with my Patreon channel, and everyone really encouraged me to re-record it for myself and put it on the new album. I tried to channel a bit of a “Fleetwood Mac Dreams” vibe, but ultimately I think it’s just a classic happy-sad pop song.”
‘Crying on the Inside’ is available today and is taken from her upcoming self-produced album Tomorrow’s Yesterday which is set for release on 18th March.
