Missy Higgins has always been known for her raw, heartfelt music, but her latest album takes vulnerability to a new level.
In a recent interview with B105’s Stav, Abby & Matt, the Australian singer-songwriter shared truths that shaped her new work, revealing that much of the album is inspired by her personal struggles following her split from her husband in 2021.
“I decided not to try and pretend that I was in better head space, than I really was,” Higgins said.
“Breakup albums are often about trashing the other person, but I just wanted to write an album admitting that I was in a hard place and I’m still trying to deal with it.”
