It’s a big day for alt-pop artist Love You Later (aka Lexi Aviles), who has just released a beautifully uplifting new single called ‘Someday, Today Will Be Long Ago’.

Inspired by the realisation that no one on this earth is perfect, the song serves as a reminder for us all to not be so hard on ourselves.

“I’ve made friends with the fact that I’m a messed up human – we all are. That’s how we learn from our mistakes and become better at being human in the first place. It’s okay to not have it all figured out and there’s a sense of freedom and power in the feeling of letting go. What will be, will be and there’s no sense in trying to force my life to happen the way I think it should. Writing this song was like a therapy session in of it self and I’m hoping it feels like a breath of fresh air to whoever listens.”

‘Someday, Today Will Be Long Ago’ is taken from Love You Later’s new ‘From The Window Seat’ EP (out now), which features seven deeply personal songs that were all written as a reflection of the artist’s life – and the world around her. Elaborating further on the record, Aviles explains:

“The past couple years of my life, I feel like I’ve been viewing my life from a bird’s eye view. I’ve been diving into my thoughts and my soul and self-reflecting more than ever. It’s a scary thing to do but I’ve learned more about myself. The title of the EP comes from a lyric in the chorus of ‘Girl With Headphones’ – ‘From the window seat, I feel so out of control, so I’ll be the girl with the headphones on.’ And lately, whenever I’m sitting at the window seat of a car, train, or a plane, I take a step back and think about where I’ve been and how far I’ve come. Each of these songs on the EP represent a thought or feeling I have from the window seat.”

Love You Later

Nashville-based singer and songwriter Love You Later (aka Lexi Aviles) is back with an anthemic new release that demands your attention!

Serving as a taster to Lexi’s upcoming ‘From The Window Seat’ EP (out 5th May), ‘Are You Gonna Care When I Die?’ is a song dedicated to self-empowerment, and reminds us to embrace and celebrate ourselves for who we are.

“I wrote this song when I felt like I was drowning in rejection from the music industry, and in the real world. No-one seemed to care or listen or take me seriously. I realised that the attention from these people was not worth my time or energy, and ultimately did not define me. The song is a constant reminder to myself to regain my voice and power to tell my own story. It’s a song for anyone who feels insignificant and undermined.”

Love You Later has come a long way since her days of being rejected in the music industry. Aviles currently commands more than 65k monthly listeners on Spotify, and has garnered over eight million career streams to date.

Love You Later

Nashville alt-pop starlet Love You Later (aka Lexi Aviles) returns with a gorgeously introspective new single entitled ‘Girl With Headphones’.

Inspired by Lexi’s inner thoughts and feelings, the song serves as an outlet for the artist to share her vulnerabilities with the listener.

“‘Girl With Headphones’ is about feeling out of place, like you’re the only one living in your world. Things were feeling very dim at the beginning of this year and it made me think about how when I was kid I would feel like the main character in my own indie film, staring out the window of the passenger seat and romanticising everything the world has to offer. There’s a true vulnerability and weight in this song as I pretty much admit I haven’t been feeling like myself lately. The song also comes with a sense of letting go and realising maybe that’s what’s stopping me from being truly happy. ‘Girl With Headphones’ is about me, the main character, experiencing what it feels like to grow, let go, embrace the unknown, move on and return to myself. It’s a cathartic rollercoaster.”

To date, this emerging singer-songwriter has racked up more than five million career streams, while also garnering praise from the likes of MTV, The Line of Best Fit, Flaunt Magazine and American Songwriter.
