Olivia O’Brien Premieres New Song “Empty”
American singer-songwriter Olivia O’Brien premiered a new song "Empty", which follows up "Find What You’re Looking For".
The new song was co-written by Olivia O’Brien and Nick Ruth. She has already filmed the music video for it, which will be released in a few days.
Olivia O’Brien made a debut with "Trust Issues" via Island Records in 2016. Afterward, she has released "Root Beer Float", "Find What You're Looking For", and the original solo version "hate u love u".
Gnash collaborated with O’Brien on "i hate u i love u" in 2015, which reached No.10 on the the Billboard Hot 100 and No.7 on the UK Singles chart.
"i hate u i love u" is her original song and provided to Gnash. O'Brien had already worked with Gnash, having covered his song "Disposable".
About the new song, she said;
"The song that I’m releasing in February is probably my most emotional song [I’ve] ever written. That one’s gonna be really, really deep. I actually cried when I wrote it. But other than that I would say “I hate u I love u,” just because it’s my sad song. I wrote it when I was in a really tough place. It was extremely emotional and I think a lot of people are going to relate to it. You know, I haven’t released a sad song since 'I hate u I love u.' But I think people who liked 'I hate u I love u' are going to like this. It doesn’t focus on love, it focuses on personal feelings and struggles. I just think it’s going to be a good one. I also have a music video coming out for it and I’m really excited about that!"-
