After hinting at a new EP with the release of This Is The Girl last year, London based alt-pop songwriter, Paige Kennedy, finally unveils that Doubles, is set for release 14th April 2023.
To celebrate, Kennedy teases fans with new single, Love You From A Distance, which explores setting healthy boundaries in a world where technology and falling in love are entwined. Kennedy reveals how “Falling in love can feel suffocating at the best of times. ‘Love You From A Distance’ explores how having 24/7 access to the person you’re addicted to can leave you unsure of who you are without them. Lockdown induced cabin fever has pressure cooked all of our relationships. This is an anthem for proceeding with caution and maintaining personal space.”
And, of course, it’s complete with a shiny new video:
Amusingly, Kennedy also shares how, during the shoot for the video, the weather forecast “was thunderstorms all day, which was less than ideal for a music video with expensive gear shot entirely outside [so] we bought lots of umbrellas in case we had to come up with a different rain-checked concept on the day. Zak had a brainwave and concocted the shot with the suspended umbrella at midnight the night before the shoot. Incredibly we managed to work around the weather and spent the day dodging tractors and people walking their dogs in the fields.”
Alongside the EP release, Kennedy hints to a tour with only a handful of dates listed so far:
January 2023
Wed 18th – LONDON – The Grace
