Metronomy's Anna Prior releases new solo track "Easier Alone"

16 March 2022, 12:02 | Written by Cerys Kenneally

DJ and Metronomy drummer Anna Prior has shared her second solo single "Easier Alone".

"Easier Alone" is Prior's first solo outing since July's "Thank You For Nothing", and is, in her own words, "about letting good things go."

Prior continues, "It's about all those healthy friendships, relationships, situationships that just become stifled under the weight of the expectation we place on ourselves. The relationships that you know would be nourishing and supportive, if only you could let someone love you without your own limits."

"It's true though, most things ARE easier on your own," Prior adds. "Except moving house, tug-o-war and writing a song, at least in my case. I loved working with Jules Rosset again on this track - he helped me steer the music in a much more interesting direction (the song was called ‘piano thing’ for months before that) and most importantly, always responded to my maniacally composed emails of ideas within five minutes of me sending them - a perfect match for the over thinker."

Anna Prior's "Easier Alone" single is out now on her Beat Palace label.
