Atom Eyes release new single ‘You Do You’

Edinburgh-based collective Atom Eyes slow things down with new single ‘You Do You,’ out now. It is the third single to be taken from their upcoming debut album Blue Into Gold, due for release on June 3.

Featuring Moonchild’s Andris Mattson on trumpet, ‘You Do You’ is a soothing slice of jazz-tinged neo-soul about not being so hard on yourself. Lissa Chen Robertson’s stunningly soulful vocals are at the forefront, backed by award-winning jazz pianist Alan Benzie, guitarist Fraser Christie, drummer Scott Jamieson and bassist Tom Wilkinson.

Talking about the single, Lissa elaborates, “At times I feel overwhelmed, frozen and unable to function properly and I think everyone can feel like this at times. I think this comes as a result of constantly being there for friends, family and absorbing and dealing with all of their emotions whilst disregarding your own. It’s so important to be there for your friends and family, but it’s also important to be there for yourself and it’s okay to take a step back from time to time. It’s the most downtempo track we have written, but also one of the most uplifting. Also, Andris Mattson has written and performed trumpet on this track and we were so honoured to work with him.”
