Scott Quinn Releases New Song “Holding On To Letting Go”
London based singer-songwriter Scott Quinn will release his long-awaited debut EP “BETTER FOR ME” on June 25, 2021.
To date, he has released two singles “NIGHTMARE” and “Better For Me” from the EP.
On May 28th, the third single off entitled “Holding On To Letting Go” along with a music video arrived. It was written by Scott Quinn and Adam Argyl.
The song is a subtle, emotionally-charged ballad pairing his remarkable vocal with tasteful electronics and plush instrumentation.
A self-confessed ode to codependency, the track provides the most intimate insight into his own work to date.
Scott Quinn said of the song, “It's about the self justification of keeping yourself in a hurt state in the hope of holding onto the tattered remains of a relationship.”- He continued, “This song was one of the easiest songs I've ever written. I wrote it with a very talented writer called Adam Argyl, in a studio in west London. We had both been going through some pretty intense and emotionally taxing relationship stuff and just met on common ground when writing this song. Listening back to the voice memos is so interesting because you can hear how the song just 'arrived' out of nowhere. There were some lyrics in this song that rang so true for both of us, which made the whole process so cathartic. Not to mention the title lyric 'I keep holding on to letting go..'. It's such a simple concept but carries so much weight, I'm so surprised that I haven't heard it sung that way before.”
