Anna Margo Releases New Song “Brainrot”
Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Anna Margo released the third single called “Brainrot” from her upcoming sophomore EP “Swings” on May 1, 2026.
The 7-track EP is set to be released on June 5, 2026. It is the first project since the 2024 debut EP “If You're Still There”.
The track was written and produced by Anna Arzumanyan. It features Suuvi Baclear on strings.
The accompanying music video was directed by Daniel Carberry .
Anna Margo said of the song, “’Brainrot’ captures the feeling of being trapped in your own mind, where overthinking turns into paralysis and even the simplest thoughts feel overwhelming. It lives in that sense of being stuck in an endless loop, constantly restarting but never quite breaking free. That cycle is at the core of the song, and it’s something we also leaned into visually, reflecting that repetition and lack of escape while still searching for clarity and connection.”- She continued, “From a production standpoint, I wanted to keep this one intentionally minimal and let the emotion carry. The cello plucks and string swells drive the song from beginning to end, with the beat slowly developing as each section unfolds. The live strings were performed by SUUVI (Sophia Bacelar), a world-renowned cellist and long-time collaborator of mine, which brought a level of depth and texture I couldn’t replicate digitally. The vocal layers were also integral to the dynamic of the track, building intensity without overcrowding it. I really leaned into space as a production tool on this one, because sometimes less is more and every element has to have some room to breathe.”
