Phoebe Green has released her infatuated new single 'Precious Things', and announced a UK tour

Phoebe Green has shared new single 'Precious Things' and announced details of a UK headline tour for April 2025.

The Manchester artist's latest track explores themes of romantic infatuation, marking the first preview of a new project expected in 2025. The single was written and produced by Green in her Manchester flat and her parents' house in Lytham St Annes, with Ric Levy handling production and mixing duties.

"I really wanted to write a song about the obsessive, almost fan-like behaviour that we can exhibit in romantic relationships; I love borderline creepy lyrics that are a combination of uncomfortable and almost comedic when expressing love for something or someone," Green explains.

"I wanted to contrast this with a truly devastating chorus that almost feels sacrificial, a willingness to be of use in any way to someone just to feel needed. I like that sonically both of these ideas are reflected also, the verses are sort of nursery rhyme-jolly so that the deeper meaning is concealed somewhat, whereas the chorus is just fully heart-on-sleeve yearning with the big synthy choral sound."

Speaking about her forthcoming material, Green adds: "I think this new music is just very me. I've been listening to a lot of Imogen Heap, St Vincent, Caroline Rose and obviously Charli XCX and Chappell Roan, though I don't feel as though I've intentionally drawn much influence from anywhere in particular. I think I've subconsciously shied away from writing big pop choruses in the past, but I really loved experimenting with this on my new project. I've really tried to marry the sounds with the lyrics and allowed the vulnerability to be a focal point, I mean what I say and if one day I don't feel the same, then I'll try not to be embarrassed that I once said something with conviction because at the end of the day I believe in something entirely until I don't."
