Debbie – Midnight Calls

TRACK OF THE WEEK

“I release my emotions through my music. ‘Midnight Calls’ was just another one of those songs for me. Like most of my unreleased music, I put it in my back pocket, replaying it to myself from time to time; not expecting much from it… but one day whilst sitting on the bus this particular song touched me.

I had goosebumps and a heavy hit of emotion. I couldn’t keep it to myself so decided to share it online – only to see it was touching so many other people. I’m so glad I listened to that song on the B14 that day.”

New Music: Debbie

Freshly signed to 0207 Def Jam and still only 22-years old, London-born musician Debbie crafts a delicate and immersive blend of emotive soul and pop.

Her stunning debut ‘Is This Real Love?’ is an earnest and heartfelt plea for a connection that goes beyond surface level emotion and social media stunting.

“I was frustrated with how much the definition of love is fantasised. I found myself getting passionate about the subject, and getting lost in research. In my findings, one thing that stood out was to have a stable relationship, it takes more than love. Yes, love is important but at its core it’s just a feeling, and you need more than a feeling to sustain something healthy. Patience, self-awareness, compromise, forgiveness just to name a few… I didn’t like how social media framed love at a surface level – with ‘couple goals’ and ‘happily ever after’ captions. It all just felt misleading.”
