Saint Saviour unveils the brand new release, "Better Than"

06 September 2023, 12:58 | Written by Tyler Damara Kelly

Saint Saviour – the solo alt-pop project of singer-songwriter Becky Jones – releases her new single, “Better Than”.

“This song is a sort of self-criticism in a fun pop disguise. Have I been a good feminist so far? I’m not sure. It makes sense to compare myself to what was modelled to me. I can see that I have ‘broken a plate’ in the sense that I have quietly forged my own purpose and deviated from traditional expectations imposed on the women before me," Saint Saviour says.

"However, the song’s message hopes that my daughter’s generation will forge ahead with a stronger sense of self esteem. This is the missing piece from my story which I dearly hope she will find. “Don’t eat my mistakes, you’re better than this”. I’m happy that we managed to make the song feel jubilant in a way, it’s a message meant to embolden rather than preach.”

"Better Than" comes hot on the heels of "Poetry", which marked Saint Saviour's first release in three years, following the 2020 album, Tomorrow Again.

"Better Than" is out now via VLF Records.
