Maisy Kay released a new single, “Bitter”, and it carries that late-night ache you hear after love has gone quiet. Her voice is the first thing that stays with youL It’s soft at the edges but full of hurt when the chorus opens up. The production has a summer shine but the words sit in a much sadder place and that contrast gives the song its bite. The melodies are touching without making the moment heavy, while the sound design adds small bright details around her singing. The song is honest and easy to replay with a chorus that keeps opening a little more each time.
