New York, NY — April 12, 2024 Olivia O'Brien, the acclaimed singer-songwriter, is set to make a triumphant return to her roots with the release of her new single "blip.”. This highly anticipated track marks O'Brien's first release under her own label, girlhood records, via Warner Music Group’s ADA Worldwide, following her departure from the major label system. “blip" serves as the lead single from her forthcoming EP, set to be released this summer,  which promises to showcase a fresh chapter in O'Brien's musical journey.

Now officially in the driver's seat of her career, in "blip," Olivia O'Brien introduces audiences to a captivating new sound that delves deep into her singer-songwriter roots. Inspired by her own experiences with unrequited love, the single serves as a poignant exploration of the longing for connection with someone who may never reciprocate. Drawing from her heartfelt poem on the enduring presence of unrequited love in her life, O'Brien infuses "blip" with soulful melodies and raw emotion, inviting listeners on an introspective journey of love, vulnerability, and self-discovery.

When reflecting on what “blip” means to her Olivia shares, "blip" is a song for my fellow delusional people who fell in love with someone they never dated. This song blossomed from a love of the word “blip” and a poem I wrote about how unrequited love is a lifelong friend of mine. I write songs about loving people who never thought twice about me… so I made another one.”
