Here is a quote from Annie-Dog on the song: “‘Fish’ is a song I wrote about a year ago. Being told that there are plenty of fish in thesea when going through a breakup or whatever always feels so ridiculous…because,I’m sure it is the case, but what has that got to do with me? Maybe I liked that onefish in particular. I won’t be happy with just any old codfish. That was the generalidea when writing this song. The hook “there are so many fish in the sea- how could Ineed anyone but you now?” pretty much sums it all up. I recorded, produced andmixed this track myself, as per. I used these old cigarette cards I came across yearsago that have different types of fish on them as artwork for the track. They’re cool.They have facts about each fish on the back of the cards. I’m equal parts fascinatedby and scared of the ocean, and all the creatures that lurk within. And also sometimes people..”

The follow-up to hypnotic debut single ‘The Pressures of the Heart’, Annie-Dog’s latest material sees her delve further into the shapeshifting pop landscape, incorporating the influences of Grimes and Pinkpantheress within her own sublime self-production, attracting several early plaudits in the process.

Speaking ahead of her newest release, which arrives ahead of a slew of shows lined up for the spring, Annie-Dog explained: “‘Double Cherry’ was written by me in my boyfriend’s house. ‘Double Cherry’ is about so many things-I wouldn’t know where to start. I suppose it’s a song about relationships. My relationship with myself. My relationship with my boyfriend. His relationships with people he knew before me. Mine, before him. It’s always love at the start of things. And everything feels fated.”

Detailing the accompanying visuals, the songwriter stated: “I had bought this glass prism in the charity shop around the corner from my house a few days before writing ‘Double Cherry’. It was €2. After the song was finished, I decided to make a video for it. I didn’t have a camera, so I opened up Photo Booth on my laptop. My bedroom-scape looked particularly lame that day, so I picked up my newly acquired prism and started to move it around in front of the camera, catching and distorting different angles. In the same way, when you’re in love, sometimes you have a distorted view of the other person. You only see what you want to see. You miss a lot of what’s really there”.

Taking her moniker from a Smashing Pumpkins deep cut, Annie-Dog crafts bittersweet shapeshifting pop tracks that occupy a mesmerising world somewhere between Grimes and PinkPantheress.

A true self-starter, Annie-Dog embraces a wholly DIY ethos influenced by a plethora of fellow idiosyncratic artists including Alex G, Dean Blunt and Imogen Heap, self-producing all her forthcoming material alongside drawing inspiration from her personal ephemera collection.
