Rising London star Siobhán Winifred has shared details of her debut EP, Don’t Do Well Alone, out September 27 on Chess Club Records. Siobhán is also releasing the EP’s title track and new single ‘Don’t Do Well Alone’ – alongside a new video directed by Chaz Rudd.
Siobhán’s songwriting is marked by an unflinching vulnerability and relatable depth that belies her age. Her new single, ‘Don’t Do Well Alone,’ starkly contrasts the isolation of personal demons with the exhilarating freedom of her live performances.
Speaking more on the inspiration behind the new single, Siobhán said: “‘Don’t Do Well Alone’ is like a diary entry confessional about the anxiety and imposter syndrome I often feel. I feel alive when I’m performing on stage, but when I’m by myself, the anxiety and overthinking crawls back in and I can become very self-critical. I wanted the euphoria of performing to be captured through the production (this is my first song with trumpets!) and the intensely vulnerable lyrics to show how hard dealing with anxiety can be. It feels like Sam Fender meets Phoebe Bridgers – two huge influences of mine. I want Don’t Do Well Alone to serve as a reminder to people that they’re not alone in how they feel, but also that they should reach out for help instead of suffering in silence.”
