Sans Soucis Claims Ownership Of Their Body With ‘Lost When I’m Around You’

A deeply intelligent new pop song...

Sans Soucis has shared new single ‘Lost When I’m Around You’.

The Italian force is a master at blending superb pop melodies with intriguing lyricism, daring to cross boundaries nobody else would go near. Set to hit London’s Corsica Studios on September 22nd, they’ve just shared something new.

‘Lost When I’m Around You’ is a glorious summer bop, a carefree song for the summer months. Beneath this, however, lie some of Sans Soucis finest lyrics yet – they dare to tackle menstruation in a pop song format, while broadening the scope of the song to discuss body politics in a patriarchal society.

Quietly groundbreaking, Sans Soucis crosses lines of gender, opening up some bold discussions while remaining true to their pop principles.

Sans Soucis comments…

Lost When I’m Around You’ is a song I wrote to complain about my PMS and period, when I was at the cusp of both. It’s a catalyst for a wider reflection around how and why bodies get censored in a patriarchal society, how that affects my work ethics, relationships, the perception of my body as a gender non-conforming person, and ultimately my mental health.

Complaints aside, I hope people will shake their soggy pAdSS (!) to this song and that we all get to be more vocal about periods and considerate towards people who menstruate.

Tune in now.
