Lauren Mayberry releases new solo single, "Change Shapes"
"Changes Shapes" is the third solo song to be released by the CHVRCHES’ vocalist, Lauren Mayberry, following last year’s acclaimed debut, Are You Awake?.
The new song sees Mayberry expanding upon the themes of how traditional gender roles have impacted her life and career. “I feel like I perform to the general public but also play a character inside the internal experience, because there is so much negotiation involved in my existence there,” she says. “How do I keep people happy enough that they'll let me do the creative work that I want to? I feel quite fake and hypocritical sometimes because so much of the narrative around the band is "feminist", but my experience inside of it hasn’t been a lot of the time. I feel like I did all this work to make things function but when you DO adapt yourself in that way, it’s seen as manipulative, in order to get what you want.”
"Changes Shapes" is out now via EMI/Island Records.
