Byfyn – 'Ain’t Gonna Be Lonely'
Hertfordshire based dark pop artist Byfyn (aka Ellie Isherwood) shares gorgeous new single ‘Ain’t Gonna Be Lonely’.
‘Ain’t Gonna Be Lonely’ is driven by a pulsing bassline that builds the undercurrent to a perfect storm of synth coated beats. Byfyn’s glossy lo-fi universe, with its catchy rhythms and hypnotic vocals, makes for an exhilarating listening experience – riding on the highs and lows of its rousing melodies. Lyrically, the track dives deep into self-exploration. “I had been going through a bit of a crisis of identity and I was struggling with anxiety,“ Ellie reveals. “I began to realise just how co-dependent I had become on my boyfriend of 6 years. I hate being alone, I always have, but it had kind of reached a crisis point for me, where I was like, I'm in my mid 20s now, I need to examine what's going on here, so I wrote this song as a start.”
