Love You Later Shares New Single ‘Girl With Headphones’
Love You Later, the solo project of Southern California-native dream-pop artist Lexi Aviles, has just shared her brand new single Girl With Headphones, an upbeat alt-pop song, the first single to be taken from her upcoming EP, From The Window Seat, set to arrive on May 5th!
I am really enjoying the sweetness of Love You Later's dreamy vocals which beautifully contrast with the punchy beat, cool guitars and pulsing, fuzzy synth arp. Girl With Headphones is a song about feeling out of place, a relatable song that is nicely wrapped around an upbeat alt-pop production that gives me cinematic, nostalgic vibes that would make it perfect to be the soundtrack of a coming-of-age movie. Definitely a memorable listening experience perfect for a laid-back weekend. Check it out below!
Speaking about the song, Love You Later said,
‘Girl With Headphones is about feeling out of place, like you’re the only one living in your world. Things were feeling very dim at the beginning of this year and it made me think about how when I was kid I would feel like the main character in my own indie film, staring out the window of the passenger seat and romanticizing everything the world has to offer. There’s a true vulnerability and weight in this song as I pretty much admit I haven’t been feeling like myself lately. The song also comes with a sense of letting go and realizing maybe that’s what’s stopping me from being truly happy. ‘Girl With Headphones’ is about me, the main character, experiencing what it feels like to grow, let go, embrace the unknown, move on and return to myself. It’s a cathartic rollercoaster.
