Pet Snake, the project of Liverpool-based singer-songwriter Evelyn Halls has returned with her new single “Crashing.” It’s described as a track “about overcoming newfound social anxieties brought on by the pandemic and the long journey to feeling yourself again.”
The track takes a more upbeat 90s rock approach, with a sun-soaked rather upbeat and positive nature to its construction, with gorgeous vocals and a blend of light pop and garage rock into something that feels readymade for listening this summer.
Speaking on the sing,e they add:
“I entered the covid pandemic an extrovert and exited an introvert. I was suddenly overwhelmed in crowds, unable to make the most basic of small talk, second guessing my body language and crying in the middle of the supermarket because of decision paralysis. I’d never experienced social anxiety until then and it hit me like a ton of bricks. I was questioning every belief I’d ever held, struggling with my personal relationships and I crashed at the end of each day in a heap from overthinking. I really had to work through a lot to get back to “me” and writing this song was the start of that journey. For some of the production, I was really feeling some icons from my teens for this one (Blink 182, New Found Glory, Mayday Parade) alongside more current faves (The Beths, Pinegrove).”
