Seventeen-year-old Lexie Carroll has dropped a new single: ‘do you wanna leave this city?’. The track is built on the idea of wanting to run away with someone you aren’t sure feels the same way about you. “It’s a bit tricky to craft your cottagecore future dreams with someone when you don’t know if the feelings are mutual,” she says. Her music feels effortless in its ability to evoke emotion both musically and lyrically, with gentle chords perfectly balancing out the distant synth melodies that lurk in the background.
