Lala Hayden has announced her new EP 'viva venus', set for release on 28th March, alongside sharing new single 'honeymoon suite'.

The London/Barcelona-based artist's latest EP follows her 2023 debut 'Girl Becomes' and features previously released tracks 'rush of love' and 'baby you're the best!'. The new collection has been created alongside producer Ben Christophers, known for his work with Bat For Lashes and Françoise Hardy.

'honeymoon suite', co-written with Twin Atlantic's Sam McTrusty and Ross McNae, alongside Balancing Act's Jackson Couzens, explores themes of escapism and inner conflict. 'The song was inspired by a night at a casino hotel in palm springs', Hayden explains. 'There was so much to see but I was so anxious that all I wanted to do was hide inside the suite with my love. I feel like I've been addicted to the honeymoon phase where everything is light because I was running away from the darkness inside. Anything to quiet the noise'.
Speaking about the EP's broader themes, Hayden says: 'This EP is a journey from seeking the love outside to beginning to get a glimpse of the love that exists within. I feel like technology has irrevocably changed the paradigm for relationships, both in how we engage with ourselves but also our surroundings. It feels like 24/7 thrill seeking or looking for the next best thing'.
