All most of us want is simple love. The kind that is open, clear and established so you never question it. It’s hard to find when no one wants labels anymore, just casual behind closed door relationships. Karis Taylor wrote her new single “Crowded House” about loving someone that keeps her in the dark about their feelings. Her confession of how much she hates waiting for the answers. Karis blends storytelling with soaring synths and a guitar-driven beat. If you’re a fan of alt-pop and Gracie Abram esc lyricism then this song is for you.
Karis said “Crowded House” is a delusionship anthem about wanting to love loudly, without the silly nonchalant games and what are we questions that make you spiral and lose your head. It was written and produced alongside Seth Tackaberry and has cements itself as her most triumphant release to date. Karis wanted this to be an emotional outpouring that celebrates yearning and the power of feeling deeply. Stealing moments you wish you could have any second isn’t easy, especially when it’s out of your control. “Can we cut it out, I don’t want to wait until there’s no one around, you’re all I think about.” This release brings a bolder side of Karis Taylor that she’s never shown before. “Crowded House” has a blunt vulnerability that feels healing to the deep wounds we try to avoid. Put in on blast and scream the pain away.
