Punchy and impressive, Somebody To Lose is the exceptional debut release from Irish-born newcomer Altara.

After spending the last few years evolving his sound and finessing his production skills, Somebody To Lose arrives as the perfect introduction to brand new project ‘Altara’.

Written in Paris, Somebody To Lose is the result of falling for someone who’s already in a relationship. Playful and clever lyricism met with potent and catchy hooks, pin this as an anthemic first release. Sharing more, Altara explained: ‘When I find myself falling for someone, I get very in my own head & can make everything too heavy. I wanted to write something that made light of that, I wanted to show myself that catching feelings doesn't have to be deep & over the top, it can be fun, easy & even embarrassing in the best way .

This song really helped me reinforce that.’

With ‘Somebody to Lose’ being the first single to be revealed from his upcoming debut EP ‘The Lobby’, Altara is somebody to keep an eye on.

With a genre-bending sound that’s proudly hard to box he’s married the catchyness of alt-pop and the intensity of electronica. Creating a sound that's entirely his own and destined to be kept on repeat.
