A high-gloss power-pop rush, packed with infectious hooks Really, Really, Really, Really Sad follows previous single Oh Yeah, offering a further glimpse at Carla’s first guitar-forward album. Recorded at Chem 19 studio I Think That I Might Love You featuring an irresistible cast of players and co-writers including Simon Liddell (Frightened Rabbit, Poster Paints), Johnny Scott (CHVRCHES), Stevie Jackson (Belle & Sebastian) and Tamara Schelsinger (Hen Hoose, MALKA).
"I wrote it with Darren Hayman [of Hefner], who I first met years ago when I supported him," says Carla. "We reconnected later at Indiefjord Festival in Norway and started swapping voice notes with melodies and half-formed ideas. Darren is one of those writers who makes songwriting easy, playful, quick, and instinctive, and I’m a huge fan of his work. This one arrived fast; it’s not melodrama. It’s not devastation. It’s smashing a plate or screaming into your pillow sad before holding your head high and putting one foot in front of the other and reminding yourself you’re better to be rid of deadweight."
