Katie Von Schleicher - Life's A Lie

 

Fresh off the back of a UK and European tour with Aldous Harding, today Katie Von Schleicher shares the video for new single, “Life’s A Lie,” described by DIY as "an incredibly confident slice of lo-fi vintage pop." The track is taken from her upcoming debut album Shitty Hits, out July 28th on Ba Da Bing.

"Life's a Lie" is about imposter syndrome," says
Von Schleicher. "I felt really good writing the music, it's a bit inspired by Todd Rundgren or Emitt Rhodes' cheerful pop tunes. On the surface, it's just that. The narrative is from that unrestrained inner voice, the self-critic, which has the power to isolate you from the good stuff. In practice, this all happens on a subconscious level, that's why I thought it apt to be paired with the most joyful sounding track on the record."
