Today, buzzing singer-songwriter Holly Humberstone has released her brand new song “Drop Dead”, the latest offering from her eagerly anticipated debut EP Falling Asleep At The Wheel out this Friday, August 14th via Platoon. Driven by her commanding voice, melancholic piano and a beat that thumps and builds its way to a powerfully cathartic finale, the track examines the relationships in our lives that we recognize are toxic, and yet can’t stay away from. Produced by Rob Milton (Easy Life) and crafted mostly at home in the old, withering country house that Holly grew up in, the EP features six songs including her heralded trio of debut singles “Deep End”, “Falling Asleep At The Wheel” and “Overkill.”
“I wrote Drop Dead about a troubled & manipulative relationship that despite how bad it is, you can’t get out, because love can often be blinding,” says Holly. “I think a lot of people have been through something where you’re with someone that was no good and for some reason all they have to do is look at you and you go straight back.”
