Speaking about her new single glued to the floor, shy says:

‘glued to the floor was the last song written for the album. It kind of sums up how I felt for a really long time. When we first started working on the album I was in a really weird headspace. I had just started with antidepressants for the first time and it had such a huge impact on how I felt at the time so I really wanted to write about it. For years my fans have been sharing their stories and struggles with me, creating this safe and nonjudgmental space that I’m very thankful for. It’s really special and has inspired me a lot’.

shy’s new album late night thoughts is her boldest, most openly emotional, brave and beautiful work to date. An album dealing with topics including mental health, recovery, and the search for happiness, late night thoughts presents shy as she’s always wanted to be heard. The album represents an example of pop world-building at its best, creating a fresh realm for fans to enter as well a personal reset, the beginning of a new chapter in shy’s life. shy explains, ‘When I look back at my old songs, it feels like I’m looking back at the younger version of myself. And this feels like this music is where I am at the moment. It’s a new era, creatively. The biggest thing this process has taught me to just enjoy it… to enjoy these years, where I get to do what I love’.

shy has an esteemed career as a songwriter, having previously written tracks for the likes of The Chainsmokers, Ellie Goulding, Jess Glyne and Astrid S that have seen her amass more than 3 billion streams on Spotify alone. shy is a participating member in Max Martin’s ‘Equalizer Project’ which seeks to further promote and celebrate women in the music industry, while she has also been part of Bebe Rexha’s ‘Women In Harmony’ events.
