Confirmed
Holly Humberstone announces debut EP
And she’s sharing the new lyric video for ‘Overkill’ too!
Becoming one go 2020’s most buzzed about new names, Holly Humberstone has announced that her debut EP will be arriving on 14th August!
Sharing the new lyric video to recent track ‘Overkill’ alongside the news, she says of the song, “‘Overkill’ is probably one of my favourite songs. I was going through at a really happy time towards the end of last year. Before this, I’d never really been one for relationships, they just weren’t something I was looking for, but I’d recently started seeing someone and I was excited about it all for the first time. I realised I was falling for this guy and just wanted to know if he felt the same way about me, or if telling him how I felt was just going to freak him out and scare him away! I can be quite full on. I wanted ‘Overkill’ to capture all the thrill and uncertainty and confusion and the many other emotions that come with falling for someone for the first time.”

1. Deep End
