Low Girl – the indie darlings we last saw tearing up stages alongside Dream Wife and The Murder Capital – are back with ‘No Reasons’, the second single from their upcoming debut album Is It Too Late To Freak Out?

It’s a fuzzy, hypnotic breakup anthem that dances the fine line between fury and fun. Frontwoman Sarah Cosgrove says:

This was about an exceptionally messy, yet also weirdly empowering breakup. There was a lot of back and forth in the aftermath, and it seemed impossible to have a conversation that didn’t turn into an argument. As we spent more time apart I began to feel more like myself. This newfound independence, however, came with a strong sense of indignation. There were so many things I’d normalised and accepted over the years that in hindsight felt really unfair. She probably felt the same as neither of us had been perfect, but I came to realise I had little say in that relationship.

Whilst this is an angry song, it has to be said that I really struggle with anger and usually avoid it at all costs. I’ve learnt that some anger is healthy, and it’s important for your self esteem to stand up for yourself. I’m still finding a balance – some days it’s too much and some days too little. I guess this song is a little step towards an equilibrium!”

‘No Reasons’ is out now via AWAL.
