With a haunting and an unique voice in tow, chloe: the brand (aka Chloe McMahon) returns in 2022 with a relatable and sentiment laden song ‘Left Of Centre’.
Following their singles ‘Stranger To Me’ and debut ‘Thinking’, the 20 year old Melbourne electronic-pop artist tells the story of being freshly out of a relationship in their emotional new tune.
“Left of Centre” is about really liking someone who isn’t looking for anything serious. The lyric “chewing flavourless gum” is a reference to how I felt at the time. The relationship had lost its sweetness, but I couldn’t spit it out.”
