Jayla Kai's new single (and debut EP teaser) 'Apple Tree' is very good

Jayla Kai has dropped her new single, 'Apple Tree'.

It's a guitars-first cut from the newcomer's debut EP 'Epitome', out on 16th July, following on from recent single drop 'I Can’t Lie'.

"'Apple Tree' is a product of Liz Phair, Fiona Apple and my own angst," Jayla explains. "Calling something angsty can be used so dismissively, but the qualities of artists and people who are considered angsty—putting yourself and your emotions out in the world, having self-confidence to do so, being brashly honest and saying what other people won’t—are really admirable. That is something I want to emulate and it’s what inspired Apple Tree.
