Hatchie celebrates friendship with tender new tune "Obsessed", taken from her upcoming debut record, Keepsake.

"Obsessed" is the third single to be shared from Hatchie's upcoming record, after "Without a Blush" and "Stay With Me".

Explaining her new single, Hatchie says, "It's a song about friendship. I wrote it when reflecting on my teenage tendency to cling to a new best friend for support, until I eventually convinced myself I wasn't worthy of their friendship. It's ultimately a celebration of meeting somebody who you look up to who helps you grow into a more adventurous person."

Keepsake is the first collection of tracks from Hatchie since her 2018 debut EP Sugar & Spice.

Expanding on her debut album, Hatchie says, "I’m not much of a nostalgic person when it comes to memories, but I do have a tendency to hold on to certain things, like tickets from the first time I went someplace on holiday. It made sense to me to call the record that, at a time when I’m going to probably end up with a lot of keepsakes - and in a way, this whole album is almost like a keepsake in itself."

"Obsessed" is out now. Keepsake lands via Heavenly on 21 June. Hatchie will play London's Moth Club on 12 June. Find out more.
