ydney singer/songwriter Sarah Wolfe has released her fourth official single "I'll Never Be Happy Again". The track serves as the follow-up to Wolfe's previous release "100 Times," which featured fellow indie musicians The Flowers.
Written alongside producer and real-life partner Xavier Dunn (Peking Duk, Jack River, CXLOE, Graace), "I'll Never Be Happy Again" details the emotional aftermath of a breakup as Sarah alternates between soft vocals and screams over a reverb-heavy guitar. Sonically, the track is reminiscent of Bleachers, infusing punk with mainstream pop in a way that is simultaneously catchy and cathartic.
"I'll Never Be Happy Again" is one of the first songs I wrote where I finally felt comfortable in my own sound." said Sarah. "It is loosely about a relationship that went wrong, but the more overarching theme for me is anxiety; how my head always makes things out to be far worse and far more dramatic than the situation actually is. I love how the lyrics play out over such a high energy soundtrack, I wanted this to be the point of hope in the song, a reminder that things do usually end up being ok. This song is as ridiculous as my own fears are sometimes!"
Each release has brought Wolfe closer to the forefront of Australia's pop scene, garnering praise from triple j, Tone Deaf, PileRats, Women In Pop, as well as music video additions to MTV. In July 2020, Wolfe opened for Lime Cordiale at the Oxford Art Factory in Sydney for their official album launch tour. The multi-talented singer songwriter is making promising strides towards stardom.
