crushed Releases New Song “cwtch”
Los Angeles-based alt-pop duo crushed, consisting of Bre Morell (vocals) and Shaun Durkan (guitar), will release their debut album “no scope” on September 26, 2025 via Ghostly International.
The album comprises 12 tracks and embodies their trust in one another and in their craft. Bre Morell and Shaun Durkan recorded songs for the album remotely, alternating sessions between their living spaces and co-producer Jorge Elbrecht's house.
From the album, the duo released a new song “cwtch” on July 30, 2025.
The song is the second single off of the album, following “starburn”.
It was written by Bre Morell, Nick Bassett, Shaun Durkan, and Yonnas Abraham. Produced by Shaun Durkan, Yonnas Abraham, and Jorge Elbrecht.- Shaun Durkan said of the song, “'cwtch' is a Welsh word meaning an embrace with a sense of offering warmth and safety, a safe place. I wrote the song during a period where I was really struggling to 'live life on life's terms.' A time when learning new ways of coping with difficult feelings felt like an enormous challenge, and returning to self-destruction sounded like returning home.”
