Her new upcoming single ‘No Returns Policy’ is filled with metaphorical lyrics, catchy melodies and an unusual beat.
This sound is inspired by singers like Tate McRae, Holly Humberstone and Maisie Peters.
Rachel says:
“This song means so much to me as it was the first song my producer, Dylan Connolly, and I created when we started working together back in 2019! I introduced him to an artist called Tate McRae and it inspired us to create the beat and style of this track. It has grown and evolved so much from the original version as we have come back to it many times over the years to add in more harmonies, instruments and production. We are so proud of the final version which was mastered by Peter Montgomery.”
The song resembles what it feels like to have your heart returned to you after it’s been broken. This track was written reflecting on past relationships and displays a sudden realisation of the way you were treated. It’s about picking yourself back up after heartbreak and no longer settling for less than you deserve.
“A message for listeners going through a similar situation would be to realise that you can pick yourself up and be stronger than you ever were before. “
