Fiona-Lee releases Hugo White-produced single, "When I Wake Up I'm Sad"

Indie newcomer Fiona-Lee has shared her new single, "When I Wake Up I'm Sad".

“‘When I Wake Up I’m Sad’ was written through a stream of consciousness when I was processing loads of stuff. Generally the song is about feeling sad and lonely, and I think it’s quite common to try to avoid that sadness by being with someone," Fiona-Lee explains.

"I like to think of myself as very independent, but when I wrote this I was toying with the idea of how different my life would be if I was in a relationship. Would I be happier? Would I like my body more? Would I be less anxious? Probably not. I think it’s pretty normal to question these things, especially as a woman, because society teaches us from a young age that it’s important to find a partner."

Produced by Hugo White (The Maccabees / 86TV's), "When I Wake Up I’m Sad" follows Fiona-Lee's debut single, "Mother", and it's follow-up, "Nothing Compares To Nineteen".

"When I Wake Up I'm Sad" is out now via Gravity Records.
