LITTLE BIT LONG DRIVE
LA-based artist little bit has returned with her new single and video, ‘long drive’. It’s an emotion-driven track, with choruses full of genuine surrender juxtaposed by verses characterised by the artist’s self-defined skepticism. On an instrumental level, her sound borrows from the indie rock artists she grew up surrounded by, with the unique experimental tone of modern pop artists like Charli xcx adding their own last-minute flavour. little bit wrote this latest single “when I was falling in love with the west coast, reluctantly straddling both ends of the country and feeling very emotionally bi-costal. I’d been traveling and living semi-nomadically for a year, and the idea of committing to a single place was overwhelming, but I felt a draw to the mountains and coastline in Oregon and California that I couldn’t quiet.” ‘long drive’ is the final single lifted from little bit’s forthcoming debut EP, talk a blue streak, which drops on September 20th, 2024. -Dan Peeke
