When singer-songwriter, guitarist and producer Natalie McCool released her 2021 album Memory Girl it came without a title track. Natalie asked her fans to share their nostalgic stories to be used as inspiration for a title track that would follow the album release and ‘Memory Girl’ the single was released earlier this year. New single ‘Show Me What You’re Made Of’ is also inspired by those stories and serves as a conclusion to the nostalgia of ‘Memory Girl’.

About new single ‘Show Me What You’re Made Of’ Natalie shares: “This song came from the Memory Girl project; a call out for fans’ memories which I used as inspiration for a collection of new songs including my last single Memory Girl, released as my album’s title track.

“‘Show Me What You’re Made Of’ was not written with any specific memory in mind, but it’s rather a reaction to those fan memories I collated that in turn made me think about my own life and experiences up to date. I consider this song as coming full circle to the whole album process.

“This song is angrier, more frustrated and defensive, it’s looking at your life choices and all the versions of yourself that have existed, and the things you did or didn’t do that have led to the current version.

“I wanted to reflect all of this in the artwork, so the single cover is me at 17 in my first band, just starting out on my musical journey, full of ideas and hope and young naivety!

“The track’s whole end section for me is a massive emotional kick off, it’s cathartic and frustrated in equal measure and just builds and builds into this crash of an outro: “Show me what you’re made of – if only I could…”
