Brooklyn-based singer and songwriter Alaina May shares new single ‘Tourniquet’.

Built around reflections on her first year in New York, ‘Tourniquet’ captures the uncertainty of moving on from a relationship while still feeling pulled back towards it. May explores the pain of eventually letting go through delicate acoustic instrumentation and intimate vocals. 

“This is truly one of my favorite songs I’ve ever written. Writing it felt so immediate and honest. It was one of those rare moments as a writer when you sort of enter a high and everything spills out onto the page. I hope those listening love it as much as I do.”
