Clara Mann unveils new single, "Oblivion"

"Oblivion" follows previous singles "News From Home", "All My Devotion", and "Go Getter", and lands just ahead of the release of Wishbone on 23 October.

Speaking about the track, Mann explains: "Loving is accepting the light and the dark of something, or of someone - often when someone burns very bright, it’s matched by a great capacity for heaviness. Someone said to me, at a very heightened time in my life, that sometimes falling in love feels like looking into oblivion’. I went home and wrote the first verses of this song- and then I let it be for a few months, unable, at that point, to resolve it."

"A few months down the line after falling in love, I looked back and realised that there must have been a time when I could have chosen a different path for myself, and for us, but I don’t know where that crossroads was, and I don’t recall ever actively making a decision," she continues. "Love was an inevitability, in some sense, something I already knew was going to happen, from the very start. I finished the song that day. Oblivion’ is about tossing a coin and realising, as it turns, that you’ve already made your decision."
