Brooklyn’s rlyblonde Shares Your Angel

by | Nov 29, 2023

rlyblonde – the project of Brooklyn-based multidisciplinary artist Carina Allen – has dropped her new single, Your Angel. The new tune is rlyblonde’s first new single since her momentous debut EP, Fantasy, released earlier this year.

As the saying goes, ‘hell hath no fury like a woman scorned,’ and rlyblonde proves that with her new single. It’s a cathartic release of anger packaged into an anthemic alt-rock banger. “Creating music, for me, was always something fuelled partially by anger; an anger at my life not being what I wanted, of being jealous of people around me, of feeling trapped or stuck,” she says. “So this song really sums up all of those angry, rebellious, teen feelings, while also tapping into something a bit darker – what it really feels like to have a trauma response to someone or something, and what to do with those complicated feelings.”

Your Angel is released with an accompanying visualizer that’s in-step with the song’s dark, brooding energy and was produced by rlyblonde’s own production company, HOT CREATIVE (@rlyhotcreative). Handling the production and direction of all of her own videos, rlyblonde creates an all-encompassing visual world that compliments the music. “It’s one of the most important parts of the whole project,” she says.

After years of being the go-to photographer, videographer and creative director for New York’s favourite indie acts, rlyblonde stepped into the spotlight earlier this year with her debut EP, Fantasy and she will be celebrating the release of Your Angel with a show at Gold Sounds in Brooklyn on 29th November.

For an artist whose world seems stitched together from silver-screen glamour, smoky jazz clubs and the afterglow of heartbreak, Luvcat – the stage name of Liverpool-born Sophie Morgan Howarth – is every bit as cinematic live as her debut album Vicious Delicious suggests. At KOKO, Camden on Wednesday night, the rising star turned the storied venue into a dreamscape of old Hollywood, haunted romance and camp theatre – a show that was equal parts cabaret, confession and carnival.
