Abbey Lane unleashes catchy collaboration, ‘Just A Little’, following her debut EP release

Bursting with raw indie-rock/pop energy, Abbey Lane’s newest single, ‘Just A Little’ is out on Wednesday 16th October. The track is an exciting follow up to her debut EP release, ‘Afterthoughts’, which was released mid June, boasting Abbey Lane’s versatility and impactful use of heartbreak and yearning. This newest release co-created with Hayden Marie of New Wave Records, delves further into the indie-rock world of Abbey Lane, giving clear influences of the local Australian indie-rock scene with likeness to The Rions, DICE and Middle Kids. 

‘Just A Little’ combines a mid energy drive with enough dynamic changes throughout the song to keep you intrigued. The track was co-written with New Wave Records’, Hayden Marie, who also produced, mixed and mastered the single. The song is the first collaboration we’ve seen between the two creatives, working across states through back and forth demos, as Abbey explains,

“Hayden had sent me the bare bones of the track originally and allowed me creative freedom to write my own parts to it. We both vibed what the other was creating, so it made for a very easy creation process, sending each other logic sessions and demos until we reached our final recorded version.”

The lyrical process was something Abbey Lane took under her wing, creating a story that embarks on long lost love, self reflection and frustration. Abbey Lane explains the conception of writing the lyrics was “based on a friend’s relationship experience before the song took on a story of its own. Overall, it’s a narrative about having someone in your past who you can’t seem to separate from, and although you’ve both tried to move on, that in the end you’re still drawn to them.”

The story of unrequited love and unfortunate timings isn’t new to the lyrical universe of Abbey Lane, with her debut EP, ‘Afterthoughts’, exploring all themes around heartbreak and missed opportunities. The debut EP was released June 2024, gathering national support from media outlets and radio across Australia. The release of the project saw Abbey Lane journey on a 6 stop tour across NSW and QLD, playing recent shows including Rockhampton River Festival and Old Bar Beach Festival. Her electric recorded energy translates across her live setting, giving the songs a new drive when performing with her live band.
