Out today (Friday, March 3, 2023), SoLonely releases his brand new single with a deep and powerful message, “It’s All In Your Head.” The relatable record is available on all platforms through Good Sound Music/Virgin Music Sweden.

Struggling with anxiety for most of his life, mental health is something close to SoLonely’s heart. On his latest song, “It’s All In Your Head,” he opens up further about self-doubt, mental wellbeing, and the power of self. Over a plucky yet still eerie ukulele-loop, SoLonely’s gentle vocals aid in delivering a topline where he sings about overthinking, letting anxiety take over, going to a dark place mentally, and getting pulled out of it by someone or something. SoLonely traverses and blends genres like alternative R&B, emo-rap, lo-fi, cloud rap, trap, pop, and acoustic soul, making his music as hard to define as it is alluring.

Wanting to draw awareness to mental health, SoLonely is open about suffering from anxiety and struggling with mental health. A feeling that he knows all too well, SoLonely uses music as an outlet to express his feelings. “It’s All In Your Head” serves as a reminder to himself that his anxiety is all in his head and that he has the power to fight it. Through this, he hopes to help others who may also be struggling or finding themselves in similar situations.

“It’s a feeling of hopelessness and giving up, but then the uplifting part comes where I tell myself that it is all in my head. An up&down kind of mental state. I still battle with anxiety, maybe not on a day-to-day basis, and maybe not as bad as before, but it’s still there and I must remind myself from time to time that I can beat it. This song is for everyone who feels like that.” — SoLonely
