Karin Ann and Duncan Laurence have teamed up for new single ‘choking on my words’.
The track, which marks the end of Karin Ann’s ‘through the telescope’ era, sees the pair explore themes of loss and self-reflection.
“I wrote this song about the idea of having a conversation with the dark parts of yourself, maybe the parts of yourself that you don’t want to face but need to in order to process things and move on,” Karin explains. “Collaborating with Duncan felt so natural; his approach and perspective brought a new layer to the track that I couldn’t have imagined on my own. I’m so proud of what we created.”
Duncan Laurence adds: “I’ve been a fan of Karin for a while, so when she sent me the demo of Choking On My Words and asked if I wanted to write a verse and feature on it, I didn’t even have to think twice. There’s something about this song—the way it moves, the rawness of the cello, the way her voice feels like it’s pulling you into a cinematic dream and the most beautiful storm at the same time. I’m beyond honored to be a part of it. Can’t wait for you all to hear this one. Thank you, Karin.”
The release follows Karin Ann’s debut album ‘through the telescope’, which arrived last year. Since then, she has performed at Sziget Festival and supported Mehro on a European tour, as well as joining Renforshort for select North American and UK dates. She also recently shared a cover of Chris Isaak’s ‘Wicked Game’ and was named Spotify’s most-streamed GLOW artist in 2024.
