Donate to support families affected by the crisis in Ukraine ➔ Bryn Returns With New Song “Making Monsters”
Toronto-based singer-songwriter Bryn McCutcheon, aka Bryn is back with a new song “Making Monsters”.
It is her first music in three years since the 2018 debut album “Tempest”.
The track was written by Matthew Fudge, Kirstyn Johnson, Bryn McCutcheon, and Andrew Dawson, who also produced it.
“I wrote "Making Monsters" about being so committed to your anxiety you can't see or feel anything else,” Bryn McCutcheon said of the song. “'Oh fuck, there I go again. Making monsters out of men.' This was the first line to come, one that felt ridiculous but originated from a place of frustration with love. It encapsulates feeling an inability to not let my anxiety run or ruin my relationships. At the time, I was so used to the cycle of falling in and falling out of love – so used to deifying and demonizing my lovers – that I was caught in a constant riptide of unease.”
The accompanying music video was directed by Cindy Da Silva, Luke Doerge, and Kirstyn Johnson.
She said of the video, “The visuals for this song began with the video, shot by Luke Doerge of Home Sweet Sessions. We wanted something that looked how anxiety felt in a location reminiscent of both a bedroom and an asylum. I think there's something so beautiful and haunting about the image of my hands dripping with the substance we used to symbolize anxiety with.”- source : Apple Music
