Nashville singer-songwriter Daisy Briggs has just dropped her brand new single, Cold Shoulder, and we can’t wait to spread the hype. Crafted in collaboration with producer Jordan Davis, this tune’s bubbly chart-pop vibes come softened with the dusky grace of Southern summers and heartbreak, serving its lyrics with a refreshing, cut-throat feminist edge.
Daisy Briggs builds her new single around personal experience: the pain of a clingy, toxic ex-partner who thinks they can weasel their way back into your heart. Daisy describes it as a battle between two urges – to either sink into the “sweet nostalgia of a deeply flawed relationship,” or to ignite one’s inner strength and tear down those deceitful temptations with a blossoming sense of self-worth. It’s a concept we ladies can all relate to, with open lyrics crafted to suit a break-up from the male perspective too.
Tracing relatable anecdotes through resonant music is at the heart of Daisy’s artistry. As the Nashville star tells us herself, “I do what I do because I love telling stories. Music has gotten me through everything in life. If I can tell my story in a way that resonates with someone else’s experience, I’ve done my job.”
Soundwise, Cold Shoulder’s upbeat, clean-cut aesthetic could easily break the Top 10 singles chart, soundtracking fashion stores nationwide with its sweet positivity and danceable chorus. Daisy Briggs cites country-pop artists Miranda Lambert, Sheryl Crow and Sam Hunt amongst her inspirations, so if these names snatch your attention, Cold Shoulder should be right up your street.
Our verdict: Highly recommended.
