Singer-songwriter Victoria Canal has announced her forthcoming debut album, Slowly, It Dawns, alongside new single, "Cake".

Of the track, Victoria Canal shares: "It’s 6am, you’re still going on a night out and everything’s gone a little too wonky… “Cake” is the bottled up feeling of dreading (and therefore adamantly avoiding) going back to adult responsibilities, and indeed the crushing weight of the world. It’s the desperate desire to hold onto the escape just a little bit longer, even as it starts to go sour."

Where 2022 EP Elegy found her working through grief, 2023’s WELL WELL was the “wounded rebirth” that inevitably followed. With Slowly, It Dawns, she’s ready to step into the truest version of herself. “I'm trying to be honest and unapologetic about what I want to put out there, whether it's wholesome, sexy, loud, quiet, if I'm being femme or masc; I don't want to apologise for it," she says.

  1. June Baby
