Black Honey have released a video for their new single, 'Run For Cover'
"I wanted to explore the three different people inside me," says Izzy.
Black Honey have released a video for their new single, 'Run For Cover'.
The track - written with Mike Kerr from Royal Blood - arrives after months of lockdown, also following on from recent track ‘Beaches’.
Izzy B. Phillips explains: “’Run For Cover’ is about the nuances in sex. It’s fun but on a bit of a knife edge of risk and weird. Sex can be clumsy, emotional and complex. There’s so much baggage that it comes with.
"We wrote the song from a man’s perspective. It felt empowering to flip it to the female gaze. I think I’m exploring both power and my weakness in equal measure. We wanted it to sound manic – like Hives meets John Travolta, hips swinging. I love this song. I hope it makes women find themselves and dump their boyfriends.”
Of the video, she adds: "I wanted to explore the three different people inside me. A vulnerable character, a boss character, and a wild unhinged character. I think I can have all of these qualities and still be a woman. I wanted to explore something that pushes the binary expectation of femininity."
