Fabiana Palladino is back with a new single, ‘Drunk’. Following her self-titled debut album, which arrived in April, the track was self-produced and recorded at London’s Abbey Road Studios in August alongside drummer Ellis Dupuy and guitarist Joe Newman, with her father Pino Palladino later adding bass. Give it a listen below.
“’Drunk’ was written with the chaos of modern dating as my backdrop: trying to navigate the apps, the blurred line between casual and serious, experiencing the evolving terminology in real life — situationships, love bombing, ghosting, breadcrumbing,” Palladino explained in a statement. “Are they new behaviours, or do we just have new words for them? I’m not sure, but I know it’s not just me dealing with how complicated it all seems to feel these days. In ‘Drunk’, I’m unsteady, but I’m leaning into the uncertainty and the drama, trying to find some kind of art and meaning in it. ‘Cause ‘It’s no fun on your own, and peace is boring.”
