Sophie Lloyd unveils new single, Hanging On, featuring Lauren Babic

After joining forces with Matt Heafy for Fall Of Man in February, Sophie Lloyd is back with another collab: Hanging On featuring Lauren Babic.

The guitar sensation has teamed up with Red Handed Denial/CrazyEightyEight vocalist Lauren for the third single from her upcoming debut album. “I’ve been a fan of Lauren for so long, she’s honestly got one of the most amazing and unique voices I’ve ever heard, and she’s also a phenomenal writer,” Sophie enthuses. “We discussed the feelings of performance anxiety and pressures of having a music career start in an unconventional way and subsequently being labelled as ‘YouTubers’ or ‘bedroom players’ a lot and sometimes people can underestimate us because of that, and that can get in our heads. But this song demonstrates us rising above that and releasing we deserve to be where we are, and we’re two badass women making a name for ourselves in the rock music scene.”

Adds Lauren: “I’m so glad I finally had the opportunity to collab with Sophie. She’s doing incredible things in the guitar community. I love diving into different genres and Hanging On was able to scratch that rock’n’roll itch! I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do!”
