The fourth teaser from Matilda Mann’s upcoming EP (due for a November 20^th release) is ‘Japan’. In a way, it’s a breakup song. But it comes at it from a decidedly unique angle. “Over lockdown I binge-watched a tv show called Gossip Girl,” explains Matilda. “Whenever they were heartbroken, they would always fly off to Paris or do something extravagant and I thought, if I was 17 and heartbroken (and rich), I’d fly to Japan to cry and distract myself until I got over them.” She tells her story through flowing, guitar-accompanied pop, with her voice effortlessly oozing melody. Keep an eye out for that upcoming EP. -Dan Peeke
