“Something just happened with my taste. I just went through a change of what I was listening to when I was writing. It just became this new sound. I had a very clear vision of what I wanted to do in terms of production.”
It’s been a year since we’ve heard the talents of London songwriter Tally Spear, and it’s fair to say plenty has changed in 12 months.
With a sound rooted in Country and Americana – Tally’s journey started with her debut EP, Fade To White. Released last year to critical acclaim, the EP was supported by Spotify on a number of key playlists, as well as BBC Introducing. This led to a number of key festival dates including UK Festival Black Deer.
With her new material taking inspiration from artists including Alice Merton and Sigrid, her new single is one of great contrasts. While it boasts an addictively forthright hook, the lyrical journey is a poignant tale of detachment and independence. Dressed up as a twisted love story, City Girl is the tale of finding your feet and place within a bustling city.
