When you have new music from Olivia O’Brien to feast on, there’s simply no reason to feel lonely!
At the beginning of 2020, Olivia O’Brien was making her way across the country for her headlining “It Was A Sad F**king Tour.” Back to back performances at Coachella were also on the agenda, but it all came to a halt in March due to the pandemic.
Being at home certainly didn’t stop Olivia from letting her creativity flow, though! In May, she released a homemade music video for her viral hit “Josslyn,” which led to a remix featuring 24kGoldn. Then in September, Olivia paid homage to Akon’s classic “Right Now (Na Na Na)” in her single “NOW.”
Despite all the turmoil that ensued from the previous year, Olivia wanted to make sure her fans started 2021 on a positive note. Right at the strike of midnight on January 1st, she released a new track titled “Better Than Feeling Lonely” as a way to show appreciation to all of her listeners. The song was met with a very warm reception instantly, and today Olivia is delivering a cozy, stripped down version of the track along with an official music video!
The piano on this version just hits different, doesn’t it?
The “Better Than Feeling Lonely” music video was shot at The Peppermint Club in West Hollywood, and was perfectly fitted with a black and white throwback theme. Check out the visual directed by Another Realm (Elizabeth Miranda and Jacqueline Kulla) below!
