For Mathilda Homer, the years since her last release have been defined by profound change: motherhood, stillness, and a new perspective on the world around her. Now she returns with a new single, ‘Pretty In Blue’, a tender and quietly resolute new single out today on RCA Records.

Built around delicate piano and Mathilda’s unmistakable husky vocal, ‘Pretty In Blue’ unfolds as an ode to friendship and self-worth. Written for a close friend who felt her value had become entangled with beauty standards, the song moves gently but purposefully, a series of affirmations that remind us how much of a person exists beyond what the world chooses to see.

“I wrote ‘Pretty In Blue’ after seeing my best friend in quite a dark place, feeling like her worth was tied up in her unbelievably beautiful looks,” Homer says. “In a world of diet culture and women constantly being measured against beauty standards, I wanted to remind her she’s everything else too, hilarious, kind, thoughtful, and brilliant beyond that. She’s a rockstar, and I needed her to know.”
