Norway’s revelation girl in red is proving to be one of the most exciting emerging acts in Europe at the moment. Her songs and videos such as recent single i need to be alone have so far received over 45.5 million streams worldwide and garnered the young artist an extraordinary amount of attention from across the globe among the likes of The New York Times, The Guardian, Vogue UK, Billboard, Complex and The Fader. In her latest release, dead girl in the pool (BBC1’s Annie Mac’s Hottest Record in the World), girl in red ponders with candour about identity & anxiety.
Explaining the song’s narrative, girl in red says of dead girl in the pool (which also comes with a video that explains all); “i started working on this song last summer. i had just had a conversation about perspectives and different narratives that sparked some ideas. then suddenly i had the line “there’s a dead girl in the pool” and this little music video of the morning after a party playing in my head. it’s kind of about feelings of anxiety and questioning your identity, and the video will hopefully show that!”

In 2017, girl in red found herself catapulted to the status of teenage LGBTQ+ icon when her track i wanna be your girlfriend went viral, winning her a devoted fanbase that’s grown at a staggering pace over the last eighteen months.

girl in red was one of the most talked about acts at this years The Great Escape, with the likes of NME naming her among “The most exciting new artists we saw this year” and who stated of her live performance
“By far one of the most hyped acts of this year’s festival, girl in red played to packed-out rooms across weekend… her disarmingly self-deprecating humour and lo-fi pop bangers about teenage depression and sexual freedom pierce through the usual music industry nonchalance and gig chatter to kick off a bit of a party.”
girl in red has only just wrapped up her recent sold-out world tour and she has just announced another string of headline tour dates across the US, the UK and Europe for the second half of 2019. Keep up to date with all things girl in red via www.worldinred.com.
