A.GIRL
returns with new single
‘LOLA’
.
.
After the recent release of single ‘Lola’, today A.GIRL drops the accompanying powerful video. The talented artist won FBi’s ‘Next Big Thing’ award and was featured in Taka Perry’s captivating Like A Version on triple j, before sliding across the bench from R&B to hip hop with ‘Lola’.
The visuals are directed by Ben Develin of Mude Studios in collaboration with Red Scope Films. Supported by Campbelltown Arts Centre’s (C-A-C) Conscious program, the video reveals the ‘side of ourselves we fear but is a necessary part of our whole’.
The clip begins with A.GIRL’s alter ego Lola, strong, powerful and channelling godfather-esque vibes. As the video moves on we start to see some vulnerability in Lola and her facade slowly falls. “I’m afraid to die”. When the track shifts gears to a chilled coda her lyrics are laced with feminist defiance – “I don’t like it when you tell me I can’t, just because of what’s between my knees”. What appears as a one take video despite no obvious edit spots, we’re left with Lola in her safe place showing her soft yin side, devoid of her tough exterior and surrounded by Maori ferns and wearing her most treasured piece of jewellery. “You can call me Lola when I walk up in the room”.

‘Lola’ follows on from previous singles ‘All Over You’, ‘Play’ and ‘2142’, which saw A.GIRL pick up support from triple j , triple j unearthed, community radio and key media tastemakers.
‘Lola’ is A.GIRL’s first single drop since winning Next Big Thing at FBI Radio’s 2020 SMAC Awards. She also previously won triple j unearthed’s Listen Out festival slot, was profiled as a triple j unearthed Feature Artist, and featured in Ticketmaster’s ones-to-watch in 2020.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
