Local artist Elizabeth Clyde is exploring a new sound with the release of her latest single, “Cherries.” The track leans into a louder alt-indie rock style and showcases a more blunt, self-aware approach to songwriting compared to her previous release, “How It Should Be.”
Clyde said the song is about recognizing a bad decision in a relationship or “situationship,” but choosing to go through with it anyway. “I know that this is a bad idea. I know that this is not going to go well. However, I’m making the choice. I’m going to go with it,” she said. “Eventually, you end up exactly where you thought you were going to end up.”
Like her previous release, “Cherries” was self-produced by Clyde in her DIY home studio setup, with help from her dad on some of the guitar parts. She said recording and mixing the track herself allowed her to fully lean into the song’s louder and more energetic style.
Along with continuing to release new music throughout the year, Clyde is also preparing for more live performances, including an appearance at Sidewalk Days this summer. She said she is hoping to eventually build toward releasing an EP while continuing to grow her catalogue of songs.
Elizabeth Clyde stopped by Mix 103 to chat with Calum McAnally about the new single, building a home studio, upcoming performances and the music currently inspiring her. Listen to the full conversation below.
