Wy - Softie

"weaving atmospheric compositions and emotional lyricism" - Consequence of Sound
"an atmospheric world of shimmering guitar lines and youthful angst" - The Line of Best Fit
"hard-hitting and emotionally in tune" - Highclouds
"bound for international stardom" - NYLON

"Softie" is loaded with vulnerability; it's a raw, spell-binding ode and apology to those on the receiving end of singer Ebba's bouts of depression. In her words, "Being really down makes me a jerk to people. But if I'm being a jerk to you that probably means I love you very much. It's very complicated."  The single follows the recently released 'Pavements'; a gritty, bold and electric release which was championed by Lauren Laverne at BBC 6Music and described by Consequence of Sound as "weaving atmospheric compositions and emotional lyricism". 
 
Wy are longtime lovers Ebba and Michel, from Malmö in Sweden. After several years of playing in bands together, they formed this musical incarnation in 2015 and soon released their debut EP 'Never Was' (2016). Their 10-track LP 'Okay' (2018), saw them win fans at international tastemaker titles The Line of Best Fit, NYLON, C-Heads, KALTBLUT, NBHAP and The Revue, and has paved the way for breaking new ground and universal recognition in 2019.
