HONNE share their new single, "Backseat Driver"
London art-pop duo Andy Clutterbuck and James Hatcher – better known as HONNE - have shared their new single "Backseat Driver", as the latest release to be taken from their new album OUCH.
“It was written as a result of having some therapy sessions, which ended up being more casual conversations about my life and who I was as a person”, explains Andy Clutterbuck. “In my teens and growing up I always thought I was quite outgoing. I certainly wasn’t shy and felt lucky to have a broad range of friends in different circles. As I’ve gotten older, I feel the opposite has happened and for whatever reason I feel I’ve become much more of an introvert and for a long time I’ve felt almost ashamed of this, like it was wrong to be like this in some way, especially for someone who is one of the front people of a band. Having therapy allowed me to understand that there’s nothing wrong with the way I am and helped me change my view on being an introvert. ‘Backseat Driver’ is about coming to terms with and enjoying taking the backseat and going by unnoticed.”
"Backseat Driver" follows recent singles, "Girl In The Orchestra", "Imaginary", and "Songs In My Head".
OUCH is the follow-up to 2021’s Let’s Just Say The World Ended A Week From Now, What Would You Do? which featured collaborations with Khalid, Griff, Niki, and Pink Sweats.
“One of the things we've been looking forward to is for this album was being able to go back to how we started,” Clutterbuck continues. “It’s very us, everything we've done is made by us, and we wanted to be across it all and take back control. It feels really nice to get it back and put your stamp on everything.”
OUCH is out on 6 September via Smile More Recording / AWAL Recordings.
