It started out as a poem

Back with a new track, Abbie Ozard is moving in a spoken word direction on Rose-Tinted. Filled with the spiralling thoughts of day-to-day anxiety and brushed away by the joy of a big chorus, this is an ode to the power of a good tune.

With her ever-maturing sound, this track sees her classic indie-pop sound find new and stronger legs in a more alt direction. Taking cues from favourites like Self Esteem and Wolf Alice, the combo of lyric heavy verses and a dance-ready chorus sees old and new Abbie coming together for something magical.

Talking about the track, Abbie said: Rose tinted was a poem I wrote a few years back when I realised all my friends were growing up and I felt kinda left behind. I found myself covering up these feelings with clothes and messing with the way I looked. It’s an observation on how 20 somethings cope with transitioning into adulthood, how they share their morning routines online, meditate to stay calm, buy new outfits - that whole ‘don’t get depression vibe’."

Rose-Tinted is out now via House Anxiety
