The final track on her excellent new EP By The Book, Olina single ‘Let Her Lie’ is a track that does a great job of articulating her strength for putting together captivating and cathartic releases that really strike a chord with you as a listener. The EP as a whole explores the artist’s experiences moving to a new country and the quiet struggles that come with day to day life, and it wraps up the release in really stirring and memorable fashion.

The acoustic nature of the track makes for a really raw and quietly powerful feel before it swirls and grows into something that feels all-encompassing and liberating. There is a really slow-burning and atmospheric feel that creeps in as the artist realises that sometimes you can’t fix everybody, and that showing understanding and acceptance is the only real way to come to peace with that and it feel fine. It makes for some really resonating moments and strikes a chord with you as a listener, tying up the EP as a whole in satisfying and rewarding fashion.
