Song Info: Meanjin/Brisbane's Evie Williams returns with 'July', out July 3, a dense and cathartic indie-folk reckoning with heartbreak. Shaped by rich vocal harmonies, layered guitars and a sound that builds from a whisper to a roar, she shares a story about the darker corners we retreat to when love falls apart, and the hope that quietly persists. Now with 'July', Evie leans into a rawer, more unflinching side and confronts the messier truths of moving on, reflecting on her own experience of a relationship breakdown and the coping mechanisms that carry us through the worst of it. Speaking on the single, she shares: “I wrote ‘July’ in the middle of processing a breakup and realising I had lost track of how long it had been since turning to negative coping mechanisms. It felt like anywhere was better than being alone in my room. I would tell myself that there was always going to be another night; another night to go out and have fun, but I needed to regain control first. This song nurtures a hopefulness that I was relieved to finally start feeling again after what felt like a lifetime." With an aching honesty, the track unflinchingly portrays the imperfect ways we survive heartbreak, and carefully carries the listener through to an ending full of hard-won hope.
