Montreal-based songwriter and performer Carlyn releases “Bad Habit” today, a new single produced by Patrick Krief (Darkometro, formerly of The Dears). The hurt protagonist feels conflicted about her vices, compelled to choose the lesser of two evils: smoking or being with someone who is bad for her. Carlyn typically crafts fictional stories, often writing from the villain’s perspective through a developed character. But, sometimes draws inspiration from her own life and experiences. Carlyn wears her heart on her sleeve and showcases vulnerability, putting herself in the spotlight with this release. “I wanted to create something familiar but unsettling, grounded but off, enticing but scary,” she explains about its music video in which she takes center stage. “The way a habit can be comforting but ultimately detrimental to someone.”

It’s a bold new expression from a poetic and nuanced artist that pushes the boundaries of what a singer-songwriter is or can be. Listen to Thank You For Trying out now on all digital retailers (here)
