Drew Sycamore has emerged as Denmark’s brightest new talent. Now she looks set to take her domestic success global as she introduces herself to the UK with the new single ‘Jungle’.
This track is EVERYTHING! and it’s now my latest obsession. I am digging the 80s synth-pop vibe and Drew’s vocals are impeccable creating an electrifying energy.
Speaking about the track, Drew said:
“I wrote ‘Jungle’ last summer, where I found myself in a particularly melancholy mood. “I was in love and not in love at the same time, and everything felt so overwhelming. Life has a funny way of sorting itself out and the emotion that came out in ‘Jungle’ was this feeling of falling backwards off a cliff into the deep sea. I had to just float and surrender to things unfolding by themselves.”
The single also offers an insight into Drew’s visual style via its official video. It was directed by Andreas Landgaard, and the duo created a concept in which Drew was faced with a clone of herself. The resulting visual mixes body horror and dystopian sci-fi to pose questions about identity and self-worth.
“I loved the idea of creating a visual context of what self-love could look like. There are many different aspects to my personality, but accepting them for what they are rather than gagging them makes me feel like I’m moving forward. It’s about letting go of the past and making the most of what comes next.” – Drew
