In June, Brisbane act Cheap Date delivered their debut song “Beside Me.” New track “Woman to You” is the sequel, a companion piece that reveals the next chapter of frontwoman Lara Dee’s story.
“‘Woman To You’ is a song that I wrote as a way to express and come to terms with my sexuality as a young adult. I had spent my whole teenage life convinced that I would grow up, get a job, find a husband, build that white picket fence and have kids. ‘Beside Me’ was written about the last real relationship I had with a man before coming out as bisexual. This song is the follow up to that,” she explained. “It is really an expression of obsession. Which sounds a bit creepy … but I mean it in the most innocent way. I was suddenly allowing myself to feel and think about women in a way that felt natural and inherently like my true self.”
This song features beautiful lyrics and melody, with dreamy vocals that are sure to get under your skin. If you like what you hear and you’re living in Queensland, you can see Cheap Date at the following shows:
