Girl Wilde - Probably Crying

Los Angeles-based alt-pop songstress Alex Barnes, aka Girl Wilde is back today with her brand new single called "Probably Crying", which also serves as the first single from her upcoming debut EP, slated for a late summer release. Packed with 90s-inspired alt-rock instrumentals and catchy pop melodies, "Probably Crying" is another heavy hitting track from the emerging 'bubblegum grunge' artist.

Speaking on the track, Girl Wilde says:

"'Probably Crying' is about owning my emotional tendencies and trying to figure out where they come from. Growing up I was deemed 'overemotional' (I can be). Like everyone else I have my own unique traumas, and working through them has been pretty painful. There was a certain time in my life when I could only muster the energy to cry. My expectations for what life should be didn’t leave room for me to experience reality, and when I did, it almost seemed to hurt worse. I didn’t have the patience, or distance from my own emotions."

Previously songwriting for others as well as her past musical project, Alex Barnes is no novice to the music world. The Girl Wilde project was born from a desire to be unrestricted by genre, expectations, and trends. Blending influences of rock, pop, and electronica, Girl Wilde is carving out a fresh and distinctive sound that is uniquely and truly her own.

Girl Wilde made her introduction to the world last year with her debut single "Bad Side," which she quickly followed up with singles "Nervous Breakdown" and "Fake Louis." With over 300K+ streams to date and support from Alternative Press, C-Heads, and Ones To Watch, Girl Wilde is a glam alt-pop goddess you're going to want to keep an eye (and ear) on.
