Words: Sam Geary
Lauran Hibberd works up a sweat to end the year with 'Sweat Patch', the latest slacker pop number to follow her debut EP, 'Everything is Dogs', released earlier this autumn.
“'Sweat Patch' is arguably a song about drugs, but it’s not like I’m trying to be cool about it," she says of the track, released today. "I’m pretty much frigid with anything unprescribed. But because of that, this song is based on my idea of that world. There’s loads of songs about getting high, not as many songs about watching and I guess analysing other people do it. I guess this is me, soberly sat in a room watching all of my friends take drugs. I guess there’s also a nod to the elephant in the room, A DUDE. There’s always a dude! And I guess this song stemmed from me being into this guy, but he was pretty much into other things more.”
