Australian singer-songwriter Elizabeth is billed as the “beloved patron saint of sad girls,” and that’s certainly enough to catch our faded attention as we wade through the never-ending pit of misery that is the month of August. This week, she serves up “Sweet Connection,” the second installment of the Melbourne artist’s three-part Suite of Singles, released via Our Golden Friend/AntiFragile Music and co-written and produced by Alice Ivy.
Perhaps arriving when we need it most, the effortlessly floating “Sweet Connection” a magnetic sparkle of a tune that confirms the aforementioned aura but suggests hope may be just around the corner. And it’s hard to be pessimistic with an angelic voice such as this.
“’Sweet Connection’ is about the thrill of being with new people, finding out what lays beyond what you already know,” Elizabeth says. “This song is fun, it’s staying up all night with someone beautiful, it’s the electricity of not knowing what’s coming next.”
She also describes it as “sexiest song so far.” We’re excited to hear what’s next; but in the meantime, ride along with “Sweet Connection below, and hold out hope that morning won’t bring the inevitable come down.
