"hurt" is Ada Lea's first outing since delivering her woman, here EP in March last year, and is accompanied by a Monse Muro-directed video.

Ada Lea, real name Alexandra Levy, says of the new single, "I wanted to find a way to communicate complicated feelings using the simplest language possible. I came with a narrative and removed almost every detail, so as not to obfuscate the feeling - but left it open in terms of a resolution: was this hurt necessarily a bad thing?"

Levy is yet to follow up her 2019 debut album what we say in private.
