Phone a Friend: Advice from Holly Humberstone.

"Maybe this time I’ll say something / Something a little wild, out loud / Maybe this time I’ll say something I’ve been feeling for a while, out loud," muses Holly Humberstone in 'Overkill' - a standout track from her debut EP 'Falling Asleep At The Wheel' and an extremely relatable ode to the agonising headspace of weighing up the pros and cons of trying to decide if you should confide in a romantic interest how you feel about them.

Phone a Friend: Advice from Donna Missal.

"We just want to connect so bad, and we want vindication. It’s so woven into our fabric to have those things, that we’ll force something to fit that just doesn’t. I think people lie a lot about who they are, maybe because a lot of people don’t really know. And people change, sometimes rapidly, too," says Donna Missal, musing on the confusion of being in love with the idea of a relationship rather than an actual person - a sentiment she sounds out in 'Hurt By You' on her new album, 'Lighter'.
