Whitney Whitney – 1.3

Rising pop songstress Whitney Whitney is proud to share 1.3, the highly anticipated third chapter in her EP series, available now via Atlantic Records.

The piano-focused project is amplified by its new single, “Haven’t Said Many I Love You’s Yet,” produced by Justin Lucas (Khalid, The Revivalists, EXO).

Speaking about the new track, Whitney Whitney shares: “This is my Bohemian Rhapsody. I know, a bold claim…but there are so many moving parts, tempo changes, key changes, theatrics, and dynamics. When I wrote it, I was thinking about how, at 23 years old, I had only truly been in love once, in high school. I felt behind. Unworthy, honestly. So I just poured it all out into the lyrics. It’s my favorite song on my favorite EP, so I hope you enjoy it too.”

Further EP highlights include recent singles like “Sherry Wine,” “Lucky,” and the deeply personal “All That It Is,” the latter two produced by the Los Angeles-based artist’s frequent collaborator RISC (PinkPantheress, KATSEYE, Twenty One Pilots) and co-written with RISC and songwriter Cleo Tighe (ROSÉ, Reneé Rapp, David Guetta & Kim Petras).

“I’ve been learning piano for the past year because of my deep love for this piano-driven EP, which was inspired by Elton John, classic rock, musical theater, and the way my dad used to play,” Whitney explains. “I wanted to give this EP my roots, my full self, and the embodiment of my first-ever inspirations. It’s extremely raw, unfiltered, and unapologetically me…though it was recorded through crazy vocal pain. I’ve recently shared how it has hurt to sing and talk for over two years, and these songs were written right in the eye of that storm. I would do one take of the choruses and then sadly have to stop because of how much pain I was in. BUT, this honestly inspires me MORE to heal every day. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do as I introduce this new side of me :).”

The new EP also follows what proved a landmark summer for Whitney, including her well-received festival debut at Chicago’s Lollapalooza. Drawing a passionate crowd, her set featured standout renditions of “All That It Is” alongside fan favorites like “Isabelle” (touted by Billboard as an “Editor’s Pick” upon its premiere last December). Whitney subsequently gained millions of views across her festival content, causing her TikTok following alone to increase by 44%. The Lollapalooza performance was made even more memorable when a tiny frog hopped onto the stage during “A Man Written By a Woman.” Whitney and her band played through seamlessly, turning the magical moment into an unforgettable career highlight.
