CHVRCHES’ Lauren Mayberry debuts first solo single “Are You Awake?”: Stream

CHVRCHES' Lauren Mayberry debuts first solo single "Are You Awake?": Stream

Lauren Mayberry of CHVRCHES has unveiled her first solo single “Are You Awake?”

The Scottish singer-songwriter co-wrote the melancholic ballad with reigning Grammy Songwriter of the Year Tobias Jesso Jr. as well as pop-punk artist Matthew Koma, who added finishing touches to the delicate arrangement.

In a video prefacing the song’s release, Mayberry shared that “Are You Awake?” was a “happy accident” and fittingly came together on “a grey, rainy afternoon in December” when she was feeling “pretty homesick and missing everyone.” Luckily, she found a kindred spirit in native Canadian Jesso Jr as “people who are not from America living in America.” Stream the single below.
