More about: Sophie and the Giants

Sophie and the Giants are back with ‘If I Don’t Break Your Heart I’ll Break Mine’, another hit for the power-pop band who are quickly making a name for themselves. They will also play a UK exclusive gig at London’s Lafayette on 27 September this year.

Their typical power pop with an edge runs throughout the new song, with the added bonus of some vocal-focused melodies from Sophie that give the track a more intimate feel. It looks at being by yourself, but as usual, they take these themes and elevate them to new heights with larger-than-life lyrics. Sophie explained the song:

“I wrote it when I was 19 and overwhelmed with anxiety and low self-esteem. I was still relying on others to make me happy and I had no idea who I wanted to be. The only way I could find out was if I took myself away from others to get to know myself better. So I did that, hoping the people who loved me would understand. It’s crazy to finally release it and be able to see where it’s taken me.”

‘If I Don’t Break Your Heart I’ll Break Mine’ is out on EMI.
