Los Angeles-based singer & songwriter Avery Lynch has just shared her brand new single Sweetheart, a bittersweet reflection on how toxic relationships can distort our understanding of love.
The final release ahead of her forthcoming EP, set to arrive this September via Records V2, Sweetheart is an enchanting piece of music that finds the talented artist exploring the difficulty of unlearning unhealthy patterns, and the vulnerability that comes with recognising what real care should feel like. A relatable storytelling flawlessly conveyed through Avery Lynch’s soft, emotionally resonant vocals and layered harmonies which are accompanied by a delicate acoustic guitar-based melody. The whole atmosphere of this song is quite warm and soothing, perfect for those introspective moments home alone. Check it out below!
‘Sweetheart’ reflects on the early days of my relationship and how quickly I realized that what I’d accepted in the past wasn’t love. I remember being surprised, and embarrassingly impressed, by him asking me follow-up questions, walking me home, and genuinely wanting me around. It was eye-opening to be with someone who cared about me and wasn’t afraid to show it. I wrote this one with my boyfriend Jordan and our close friend Neisha Grace. Producing the track with Jordan afterwards felt like a really full-circle moment.
