Ahead of her debut Splendour performance later this month, Brisbane/Meanjin-based singer, songwriter and producer Sycco (pron. ‘psycho’), shares her new single ‘Jinx’ along with the accompanying music video.
‘Jinx’ began its life in 2020 when Sycco was in England visiting family and doing some sessions. The song was written on her last day in a London studio about her desire to return and make more music. Alas, the COVID-19 pandemic came into effect, and Sycco was unable to return to the UK until this year, leaving the fate of ‘Jinx’ hanging in the air.
She says: “I was in my Charli XCX praise phase and in my feelings about leaving my UK family the next day, so I wanted to create something dark, melancholic, sad and quite stressful – I think the production reflects this, as well as the lyrics.”
