D’ARCY SPILLER SHARES

NEW EP DISARRAY + NEW

TRACK ‘FORGOT YOUR

MEDS’ + EP TOUR

THIS NOVEMBER

 


 

It is with great excitement that 100s + 1000s today release D’Arcy Spiller’s stunning sophomore EP Disarray, with a spotlight on her dark and poignant new track ‘Forgot Your Meds’. In the wake of the current lockdowns across the country, D’Arcy has rescheduled her upcoming EP tour to November, which will see her play shows in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.

 

A slightly darker side to the EP is delivered in the form of ‘Forgot Your Meds’. Co-written with Mark D’Angelo and Zach Hamilton Reeves (Northeast Party House), the track has a grinding off-kilter groove, the perfect backdrop for a song about the struggles of anxiety, and depression. Written after caring for her sister through a depressive episode, Spiller envelops the heavy content of the song with optimism, adding a levity to the heaviness. The resulting song is a cathartic expression her sister is fully supportive of; “she hopes at some point everyone will be able to talk about mental health issues and not feel uncomfortable about it,” says D’Arcy.

 

LISTEN: ‘Forgot Your Meds’ by D’Arcy Spiller

 

Disarray is a peak into the “hidden depths of her inner self”, D’Arcy explains.  Sometimes upbeat, sometimes quite dark, the EP is an honest and authentic reflection of the times we live in, as uncomfortable as that might be. First single ‘Wolf Blood’ is a raw, bluesy stomp, full of moody synths that build beguilingly into an anthemic chorus. The single was added to rotation at triple j and saw international airtime on Amazing Radio (UK) before exploding on streaming platforms, seeing cross-genre playlist additions, and securing D’Arcy a loyal fanbase of listeners worldwide and culminating in a sold-out hometown (Naarm) show.

 

Sophisticated follow up single ‘K Karma’ (co-written with Ali Barter and Holy Holy’s Oscar Dawson) saw adds to US Spotify playlists: The New Alt (1million+ followers), New Noise, Fierce Femmes and Fresh Finds and came with the announce of her first headline tour (slated for November). Piano ballad ‘In Another Life’ is D’Arcy’s latest offering and was added to a plethora of alternative and indie tastemaker playlists across Spotify, Apple and Soundcloud.

 

With Disarray, Spiller announces herself as an artist unafraid to take risks and push the boundaries of her sound into challenging and sometimes uncomfortable places. The results are flawless, thrilling and endlessly rewarding. Balancing light with dark, beautiful with harsh, D’Arcy’s musical world reflects her personal one. “It all comes down to trusting your gut and being ok with having a darker side,” she says. “Everyone has one. Light and dark. There’s no balance without those two.”
