BROCKHOFF shares her new single ‘Sunny Day (Deadline)’, which is released along with a video by Marf Mabo & Maja Beyer. The debut album Easy Peeler will be released on June 5 via [PIAS] Recordings.

With her new single BROCKHOFF finds a lightness in sound to carry her paralyzed feelings, creating musical reconciliation with herself, blending 90s alt-rock textures with modern indie pop lightness. The song is dedicated to her songwriting process – a way of making sense of herself and the world by putting it into words: “You know that when things go off / I’ll wear them like a crown / I’m gonna find a way to make them sing along. ‘Sunny Day (Deadline)’ is an ode to her own intuition, self-reflection and songwriting as healing. Honest, catchy and self-aware, it captures the urge for change while proving that vulnerability can still shine bright.

“It’s the last song I finished writing for the album. We recorded this one with the band at the same time as we recorded all the other songs of the album but it was the only one I hadn’t written any lyrics for yet,“ BROCKHOFF tells about the process of writing ‘Sunny Day (Deadline)’. “I usually write all melodies at the same time as I write lyrics, or at least outlines of it, it all happens at the same time. So this started to stress me out throughout the process of finishing the album with a deadline looming. I always felt like I do not work well creatively under the pressure of deadlines and at that time I felt like I had nothing to write about.
Then I decided to write the song about exactly these struggles. It ended up being a song about songwriting itself and what it means to me. To me the song is about procrastinating and at the same time trusting the fact that writing things down, journaling and writing songs, always shows me how I’m really feeling about something. I realized that songwriting is always something I will do for myself, it’s always a mind opening experience. It can be disturbing or comforting but either way it’s kind of healing in the end.“
