“This Place” is a song about being stuck - in a small town, in a dead end routine, in old habits. “why do you stay here when you want to leave this place?” is the question posed by the chorus, a reminder that the only thing keeping you there is yourself, wherever “this place” may be, and that you are free to create your own destiny: “So you pack up your things and you run and you run for your life”. While some may draw a connection to the song’s message with current events, the lyrics are inspired by a universal feeling of hope and breaking out of your comfort zone. Synths, guitars and driving drums accompany singer Sümeyra’s ethereal voice to create an arena- dream-pop backdrop for this story of hope and letting go.
The single, accompanied by a music video, offers a taste of the band’s upcoming album and is also available as a radio edit mixed by London producer Oliver Wright (Hot Chip, Dream Wife, Emily Burns, et al). The release is accompanied by a music video and a promo campaign supported by Initiative Musik in Germany and the UK.
