“I started ‘in the still’ back in the early days of the pandemic,” says PRONOUN on the new song. “I had an awkward conversation with an acquaintance and never got a chance to apologize before lockdown and seemingly no way to ever resolve it. Years later I found myself in a similar situation and was finally able to finish the rest of the track lyrically.”

“and it’s been raining ever since is an in real time ode to the process of getting over something that never even happened,” says PRONOUN the moniker of songwriter Alyse Vellturo, “It’s about letting go in every way you can imagine to refind yourself for the fifteenth time.”

“’i like lizzy (but she doesn’t like me)’ is about catching the feels for someone after they lost them for you; about being too late to your own party, and the frustration that comes along with all of that.” she explains on the song. The hot dog grilling backyard BBQ music video, written, directed and edited by PRONOUN herself, can be seen below.

“I wrote this on a drive back to Brooklyn from the holiday break in winter 2023/2024,” says PRONOUN aka Alyse Vellturo. “It’s about messing something up before it even started and feeling in limbo.” In true PRONOUN fashion, the song is filled with shimmering guitar riffs guiding the listener through the story of a fumbled first shot. “So I guess this is over, I’ve officially blown it. The next steps for me are forgetting that moment”, she sings, swallowing her pride.

‘i haven’t felt like me’ is the first single from an upcoming EP to be released this summer. It follows the single ‘SLAP ME IN THE FACE’, which was released last year.

The music video was filmed in Los Angeles and will take anyone over the age of 28 down a nostalgic swoon worthy lane with nods to Ryan Cabrera, Avril Lavigne, and 98° most popular music videos.

“’SLAP ME IN THE FACE’ is about a crazy night in with someone that turned into an internal joke of what if the world was literally fucking you,” explains Vellturo on the lyrics of the song. “It’s about wanting a better situation but giving in and getting stuck in a moment where everything doesn’t feel horrible.This song poured out of me in one sitting; written, recorded, and produced in one day. The songs I feel the most about, always seem to come this way.”

The accompanying video shows Vellturo being absolutely pelted by dodgeballs coming at her at every angle. “Given the title, I always imagined getting somehow slapped in the face in slow motion,” Vellturo says. “When putting a mood board together for the new PRONOUN era I was reminded of one of my favorite scenes in a movie. I <3 Huckabees is a film I could watch everyday until the end of time and discover a new easter egg. At one point Mark Wahlberg and Jason Schwartzmen end up on a log in the park together taking turns thwacking each other in the face with a red rubber ball until they feel a moment of nothingness. They call it “the ball thing”. It fit how I was feeling perfectly when making this song. From that moment I knew it needed to be me standing in a studio getting absolutely destroyed with red dodgeballs.”
