Sydney musician, songwriter and producer Lola Scott follows up her rambunctious debut EP ¼ Life Crisis with Breakfast For Dinner out today via AWAL. To mark the release, the multi-talented artist has revealed the official video for focus track Brinner. The nine-track EP charts a period of butterflies and deep growth within a new relationship — a growth and excitement reflected in Scott’s distinct, assured blend of ‘90s grunge, dream-pop and sharp guitar hooks with witty lyricism. Homing recent singles It’s Not How It Used To Be, Can’t Be Enough, we don’t make sense and DELETE MY HISTORY (ctrl + alt + delete), Breakfast For Dinner also introduces new single Brinner and multiple interludes that have never been heard before.

Co-produced alongside Oscar Sharah (moonboy, Mel Blue) Scott captures just how fun anguish and ambivalence can be across the tracks on Breakfast For Dinner. On focus track Brinner (where Breakfast For Dinner gets its title from) she romanticises having the opposite working schedule as her partner, soundtracking a tricky situation with dream-pop straight out of a ‘90s rom-com, explaining “This song is about how my ex partner’s schedule was opposite to mine (‘you sleep all day, i sleep all night’) & how we seemed like an odd match for each other at times but we both didn’t care if anyone told us we shouldn’t be together. I wrote it at the start of our relationship when we thought we’d find ways to make it work no matter what. The last line of the song sings ‘falling out of sync but for you I’d keep losing all my sleep’. The opposing schedules eventually lead to the demise of our relationship but I like listening back to this track to hear my optimism but lots of sleepless nights eventually catch up to you.”

Co-written with Sharah and Pat Byrne (Beso Palma) with visuals by Maya Luana Barr and animations by Olive Nash, Brinner is sugary sweet and too cute to be true, but Scott makes it sound so good. Breakfast For Dinner marks a mature, exciting evolution of one of Australia’s most innovative pop voices.

Breakfast For Dinner builds upon Scott’s ability to effortlessly genre-mix, but finds her in a very different mental state: more reflective, less chaotic, still fun. “A lot of my other songs were about the possessive, toxic side of love,” she says. “It’s why I had all these reservations about the relationship this EP is about, because it was my first healthy one. It almost felt too good to be true: I always thought love had to be possessive, but I wanted to delete those patterns… Across the EP, I’m singing these love songs, but also having all these doubts of whether I can actually have a proper relationship” Scott explains.

“Synth-heavy indie pop floating in melancholic drama,” – is the perfect description from Lola Scott herself of her multifaceted musical stylings.  Over the past couple of years, the Sydney-based artist has worked tirelessly expanding her musical offering both with her own releases and songwriting sessions with innovative pop acts including Mallrat, GRAACE, Grent Perez, CXLOE, Gretta Ray, and Jaguar Jonze. Recently announcing headline shows in Sydney and Wollongong and playing at Vanfest in December, Lola Scott has also toured internationally as a guitarist and set up shop as a producer – all part of her steadily evolving face as an artist set to be a force to be reckoned with.
