23-year-old London-based singer-songwriter Eloise releases a song and accompanying music video, “Giant Feelings.” The track is the second single off of her debut album Drunk On A Flight, set to be released on April 14th via AWAL–pre-save HERE.
A slow, reflective ballad, “Giant Feelings” details the complicated, messy emotions that Eloise is trying to confront following the end of her relationship. Eloise’s natural songwriting prowess and ability to chronicle the complexities of heartbreak stands out and is sure to be relatable to listeners. The accompanying music video, directed by Tess Lafia and shot in one take, sees Eloise lamenting over her past relationship. Shifting back and forth from heartbroken to angry, she looks out over the city of Los Angeles and ruefully hopes it rains on her former partner.
On the new song, Eloise shares, “‘Giant Feelings’ is a song drenched in frustration I think…frustration that you fell for someone you shouldn’t have, frustration that it didn’t work, frustration that you still feel everything towards them. It was the first song I wrote for this album that came out like a pop song because I had recently been getting into that way of writing. So what you’re hearing is me attempting to write pop and Conor making the song soar through his production.”
On upcoming album, Drunk On A Flight, Eloise broadens her horizons and applies her pop nous to a wider palette of sounds. The 12-track body of work is a coming of age album about embracing the moment; a heartbreak record that empowers listeners to luxuriate in their feelings – however messy or complicated they may be. “My songwriting has always been honest, but this feels raw – like I’m exploring all the shades of emotion,” she explains. Her first single from the album, “Drunk On A Flight,” introduces the album’s central theme of heartbreak by chronicling the tale of a love gone sour.
