Release Info:
Lottie’s new release is her fourth single, since bursting onto the Australian indie music scene in January 2023. “Expire”, draws on the moment a relationship has to end, but fighting the inevitable. Knowing ‘good-bye’ is the only answer but wanting to go back. The lyrics will have the listener feel like they are an observer in that moment. The hook will have you hitting replay, the melody will have you singing along, and her vocals will have you searching her name to hear more!
A note from Lottie:
Thank you so much for listening to my new single, “Expire”. With so many incredible female identifying singer-songwriters working hard to get their music heard, I’m incredibly grateful to every single person who takes time to hear my music. I hope your listeners love listening to it, as much as I loved creating it!
I’ve attached my ‘One Pager’ so you can read a little about me, it includes a link to previous articles if you’d like to catch up on my journey so far!
