Aderyn has returned with her new single ‘Playground‘ brimming with hooks and attitude, it sees her give the kiss-off to an ex in a brilliant tune full of direct, sardonic and playful lyricism. It’s another instalment from this exciting emerging artist who certainly knows her way around a tune.
“Playground was written just after a break-up” explains Aderyn. “I was definitely in the ‘anger’ state of mourning the relationship when I wrote this song. I often joke at my gigs that singing this song live is a form of free therapy for me”.
Playground is laced with intimate and raw lyrics that tell the story of Aderyn’s breakup set against a Wurlitzer of perky percussion, fizzing guitar and catchy harmonies.
Aderyn continues; “I posted a snipped of Playground on social media the same day I wrote it and it got a really good response. I had a studio session booked in LA with the legendary Bobby Bloomfield and I knew this had to be the song that I brought to him.”
Recording Playground with Bobby Bloomfield (Linkin Park, PENGSHUi) was a dream come true for Welsh artist Aderyn; “As soon as I got into the studio I knew we were cooking up something special! We put a percussion break into the song which is literally just me and Bobby hitting whatever we could find, including, a pint glass, a keyboard stand, and a glockenspiel. Everything just came together so naturally.”
