State of Confusion is the powerful new single from Fife singer-songwriter Cody Feechan. The indie-pop single, which is set for release on Friday 6th August, focuses on the breakdown of a relationship and has an uplifting, summery sound.
Cody is known for her unique voice, with a subtle Scottish twang that shines through in her music. She had huge success with her last single Breathe, which reached number 2 on the iTunes Singer-Songwriter Chart and number 1 in the Amazon Music Best Sellers and Hot New Releases for Folk.
The bold singer-songwriter wrote the single several years ago and developed it over time, performing it on her own at acoustic sets and then later playing it with her full band.
State of Confusion was recorded in February 2021 at 45 A-Side in Glasgow; it was produced and mixed by Bruce Rintoul and mastered by Katie Tavini.
As well as performing the vocals on the track, Cody plays acoustic guitar. She is joined by Keir Smith on lead guitar, James McMurray on keyboard and backing vocals, James Martin on bass and Stephen MacLeod on drums.
Citing influence from artists like Stevie Nicks, Janis Joplin and Suzi Quatro, Cody is crafting her own brand of stand-out anthemic, pop rock. The songstress started making music at a young age and has been performing for the last eight years.
Cody Feechan said: “The song is about the breakdown of a relationship – a relationship that once seemed perfect, turning upside down and becoming unrecognisable. The ‘state of confusion’refers to being very puzzled by what has happened and the uneasy decision to walk away for the better.
“Despite the track being about a break up, it’s actually quite upbeat and has a happy, summer vibe to it. The band are amazing and I think together we capture such a great energy in this single. Some of the songs I have released so far have been slower, so I’m quite excited to share a more upbeat track – and right in the midst of summer!”
Cody is set to take the stage at a number of festivals this summer including Capers in Cannich in the Highlands, Gateways Festival in Skipton, and Fringe by the Sea Festival in North Berwick. She will also be performing alongside Skerryvore and Mànran at Reid Hall in Forfar in December.
State of Confusion will be available to stream and download on all digital platforms from Friday 6th August 2021.
