"What started out as an experiment quickly developed into a personal obsession as so many of our songs yielded to a new interpretation," explained the rocker. "Intimacy replaced post punk urgency.

Singer and songwriter Juliana Tucker just released her new EP "The Great Indoors", and to celebrate we asked her to tell us about the single, "Alone But Not Lonely." Here is the story:

My song "Alone But Not Lonely" was actually written right after I found out my ex had a new girlfriend. The second it was publicized on Instagram, all my friends texted or called me with a sad tone in their voice telling me I would find someone soon and not to worry because my time will come. While I love that all my friends cared enough to reach out and comfort me, I actually didn't need it. It was the first time I didn't care about what my ex was doing. I had been single for 2 years by then and was genuinely in a good place, mentally and emotionally, and I kept thinking to myself, just because I'm alone doesn't mean I'm lonely. So I decided to make a song about it in hopes my friends would realize, I'm okay. (continue)
