The debut single from Rachel Louise delivers a sense of quiet reflection
Driven by a haunting piano riff and layered with dreamy synths and live strings, Wasted captures the frustration of feeling like you’re falling behind while life rushes forward. Co-written and produced by Joel Jones (Balu Brigada, alayna) and mastered by Chris Chetland, this debut single from Rachel Louise brings a nostalgic, whimsical sound that pulls listeners into a reflective journey of self-discovery.
The track was born from Rachel’s own season of burnout and stillness—a time when everything seemed to be happening for everyone else, forcing her to pause. “It’s ironic,” she says, “that my first release is about being stuck. But it’s also about realising that the journey here was just as important.”
With Wasted, Rachel Louise channels the ache and hope of coming back to life, reminding us that we’re right where we’re meant to be.
