Alt-R&B artist Orion Sun returns after a two year hiatus with new single “Already Gone,” out now.
The soul-infused songwriter goes back to her ethereal roots with this latest cut, allowing her soft, subtle vocals to soar effortlessly over the majestic musicality. Fans of the likes of Hope Tala and Raveena will feel at home here.
Of her new release—produced by Rodaidh McDonald and Julian Ali—the LA-based artist says,“It’s about that first night alone when your partner moves out and it’s obvious nothing will ever be the same. You try to change it or fix it or run from it but you have to come home eventually. The silence becomes heavy like water. Everything was a task. Everything was hard. I was holding on to hope like a life raft. Only in retrospect is it kind of funny. It seems dramatic and annoying but it was so true to me then.”
“Already Gone” marks Orion’s first release since her 2022 EP “Getaway.”
