‘cold shoulder’ showcases the lyrical and musical growth of American songstress Daisy Briggs. A slice of honest, personal lyricism wrapped in heartwarming country-pop goodness, the track takes us through the aftermath of a broken relationship, as Briggs deals with the reasoning behind it and the often-toxic dynamics in it. Yet, we get the feeling that it’s all part of a coming-of-age ritual for the young creative, as she processes the ever-changing emotional landscape around her.
On that note, it’s easy to see ‘cold shoulder’ as a rite of passage, a painful yet obligatory reminder of the delicate nature of romantic relationships. We are confident that it will all help Briggs unlock the next step in her personal and artistic career. From a sonic standpoint, the record already sounds rather mature and accomplished, certainly one of the consequences of Daisy moving to Nashville. Teaming up with Jordan Davis on the production, Briggs delivers a song that’s effortless and authentic, certainly highly relatable.
Delving deeper into the piece, she explains: “‘cold shoulder’ is my ode to letting go of male validation, and urging other women to say ‘how lucky would he be to get to spend time with me,’ and not the other way around”. Alongside the record, ‘could shoulders’ also includes a wholesome music video, very truck-coded.
