The track marks a long-awaited return for the expansive artist

Lauded on this site for as long as it has been around, Salt Ashes has long been somebody that we’ve championed as one of the UK’s most innovative and exciting alternative pop artists, somebody with a forward-thinking dynamic edge that feels fresh and packed full of life on every new single that she releases.

Her new single ‘Call It Healing’ is the artist’s first in almost two years, a track that is shrouded in darkness and atmospheric tension throughout, awash full of hypnotic melodies and pulsing rhythms that feel immersive and dark. The track explores the intoxicating allure of a previous toxic relationship and the emotional fulfillment that she got from it for all of the wrong reasons as well as its meaning doubling as being related her spasmodic dysphonia healing journey. All of these aspects make for an immersively dark and expansive new alt-pop single that is packed full of reasons to resonate with both her sound and her writing.
