Bethany Cosentino unveils new solo track "Easy"
After recently revealing that Best Coast are on indefinite hiatus, Bethany Cosentino unveils her latest solo single, "Easy".
"Easy" is the second song to be shared from her upcoming debut solo album, Natural Disaster, following on from "It's Fine". The single marks the first time Cosentino had ever sat and sang at her piano.
“I’m not someone who can sit still for long without my brain going into overdrive, but when I’m just sitting alone in my car, I feel peace,” explains Cosentino. “I had been thinking a lot about where my life was at 35 and how different it was from where I pictured I'd be. I’ve been writing love songs for a really long time, but this is the first love song I’ve ever written that feels … healthy.
When I’m spinning and doubting myself and my life choices, tripping out on how dark the world feels, I remember the unconditional love of my partner and it snaps me back into reality and reminds me of what actually matters. When you’re not used to healthy, respectful love, it can be difficult to accept it and I find myself trying to push it away sometimes. This song is about accepting that love into your life and it’s by far the most vulnerable I’ve ever really allowed myself to get when it comes to writing about love. Love should make you feel good, as corny as that sounds!”
"Easy" is out now. Bethany Cosentino's debut solo album, Natural Disaster, is set for release on 28 July via Concord Records.
