Aderyn has released her new single ‘Honey’. This comes after the news that she has joined the Clwb Music record label.
Musically bright and chirpy: rattling with 60s handclaps, upbeat percussion, hooky guitars and bittersweet vocals. This joyous sound is juxtaposed by lyrics that tell the story of waking up from that intoxicating feeling of believing that someone is perfect and can do no wrong. If love is blind, this is a song about what happens when you finally open your eyes. Watch the video here:
“I wrote this song around the same time as my first single, Lucozade.” explains Aderyn. “Honey plays on the same themes of ‘restless love’ as Lucozade, but progresses past the breathless, rose-tinted glasses phase of a crush and out the other side.”.
As a teenager Aderyn grew tired of life on a sheep farm in the Brecon Beacons and left home at 16 to become a drummer in a grunge band. She soon realised that the singers were having all the fun, running around the stage and chatting to the crowd. So, Aderyn began to write, with one goal in mind: to make music that sounds like it belongs on a classic 90’s movie soundtrack. Blending sardonic, confessional lyrics with hooky guitars, she is a star in the ascendency.
“It’s like the first time someone gives you the Ick” Aderyn continues about Honey. “In that moment you’d give anything to find them as flawless as you once did. It can actually be quite inconvenient to acknowledge someone’s flaws, and see them as they truly are rather than what we wanted them to be. When I wrote this song, I was mourning the loss of that naivety, because I knew that now I had removed the rose-tinted glasses, there would be no going back.”.
