The new album ‘Lean In’ by London alt-pop artist Art School Girlfriend will be released on March 11th, 2025.
This project serves as an expression of the imagination of Polly Mackey, a captivating presence in the British music scene. As a skilled collaborator, producer, and DJ, her work as Art School Girlfriend merges the elements of synth-pop with gothic guitar influences reminiscent of shoegaze.
Following her recent dreamy single ‘L.Y.A.T.T.,’ the arrival of the new Art School Girlfriend album has been confirmed.
‘Lean In’ will be available on March 11th—make sure to pre-order it now, and check out the new single ‘The Peaks’ on streaming platforms.
Polly crafted the album at her studio in London, a place of solace during challenging times. ‘The Peaks’ conveys this creative clarity, with Art School Girlfriend sharing:
“During the process of making this album, there was a period when everything around me felt fragile—what truly matters came into sharp focus with a kind of hyperreal clarity. It's beautiful, yet anxiety-inducing to realize: how fortunate we are to be here. The lyrics are urgent and expansive: ‘I want to give you the peaks, don’t slip, hold me.’ The production and arrangement aim to create a sense of overwhelm, featuring highs and lows that provide moments of tranquility amid the continuous beats and pulsating synths.”
Tune in now.
