Girli: "I've been going through a massive moment of artistic change"

Today marks the fourth and final show of Dork's Old Blue Last residency, Etc.. For this year, anyway. Held in ‘fashionable’ East London’s Old Blue Last each Thursday night across July, we’ve booked some of our favourite new acts to play free shows, showcasing some of the very best new talent around.

Next up, we’ve Girli - who we're reliably informed is going to make it go off later. If you're heading over, get there early. Seriously, don't say we didn't warn you.

Hey Girli, how's it going? Enjoying summer? It's going! Summer is bliss, but also a daze that once you leave school has no clear beginning or ending. So it just creeps in, and before you know it, it's here! and then just like it arrived, it creeps out so quickly and then it's gone in a flash. I get very nostalgic and introspective around summer.

What have you been up to lately, then? Your new single 'Day Month Second' is great. Thanks! I've been going through a massive moment of artistic change, developing my style and writing a tonne of new music that is way more badass and pop and confidently me. My new single, 'Day Month Second', felt like the start of GIRLI 2.0. A sassier, bolder, more mature version of myself.

Do you have more new music in the pipeline? Loads more! This is just the beginning. Watch out, world.

Is it too early to ask about an album still? Where's that at? It's coming, but for me the last couple years have been a big developing process; I had to release a lot of music to realise what kinda music I wanna make, and in all honesty, to write better music that I think is worthy of an album.
