Listen: HUSSY – ‘YLMD’

It's a bold return from the songwriter...

HUSSY is leading the charge.

Originally from the North East of England, she relocated to South London to pursue music, biting at every chance she could get.

Moving from the bedroom to actual studios, HUSSY – her real name is Sophie Nicole Ellison – retains a DIY led streak of independence.

New single 'YLMD' is driven by this same sense of empowerment, and it's further sign of her raucous ambition.

She explains…

“I really wanted to up what I’ve been doing sonically. Before now I’d been recording nearly everything at home but went to a proper studio to redo some elements from the original home demo.”

“The whole process became a reaffirmation of how/ why I make music the way I do. Playing everything myself enables me to immerse myself in the creative process and in the end became a form of self-empowerment, something I wanted to prove to myself I could continue to do”.

Dreamy melodies set to a biting grunge-like edge, 'YLMD' is a potent anthem-in-the-making.

Tune in now.
