DD Allen Set to Captivate with Poignant Single ‘Holborn Avenue’ Ahead of Debut EP Release
From a rebellious schoolboy in Bournemouth to a rising indie-folk sensation, DD Allen is making waves with his heartfelt artistry. His new single Holborn Avenue, serves as the final chapter from his eagerly anticipated debut EP, Rebel Hero. Following standout singles like the title track, Born To Love You, and Green Room, Allen’s latest release cements his place as a compelling voice in the indie music scene.
Holborn Avenue is a stirring exploration of first love and its enduring emotional echoes. Built around Allen’s evocative falsetto vocals, textured guitars, harmonica, and subtle synth layers, the song evolves into a soaring indie-folk anthem. Allen’s emotive songwriting and commanding voice evoke comparisons to Neil Young, Noah Kahan, and Michael Marcagi, crafting a sound that is as timeless as it is contemporary.
Reflecting on the inspiration behind the song, DD Allen shares, “I think how you handle the weight of your memories defines who you become. Even though Holborn Avenue sounds like a heartbreak song, that whole story and chapter of my life makes me smile. It’s probably the purest song I’ve written. She always had a gift for turning an ordinary day into something extraordinary. It was a special journey, and we were young. But fate tore us apart in the end.”
The song captures the bittersweet essence of youthful love, evolving from an intimate ballad to a rousing indie-folk anthem as it builds to the emotive refrain, “away from Holborn Avenue.”
DD Allen’s Rebel Hero EP, also releasing January 24, promises to be a deeply personal collection of songs that resonate with themes of love, loss, and self-discovery. The EP will be available as a limited-edition deluxe CD, featuring five previously unreleased bonus tracks, offering fans a tangible keepsake of this heartfelt project.
With his distinctive voice and intimate songwriting, DD Allen has built a growing audience eagerly awaiting his debut record. His ability to balance nostalgia with hope has made him an artist to watch, and Holborn Avenue is set to further solidify his place in the indie-folk world.
Stream Holborn Avenue and join DD Allen on an emotional journey through love, loss, and transformation. Experience the full Rebel Hero EP on January 24, 2025, and embrace the artistry of a rising star who is redefining indie folk.

Aro Rose Releases Emotional New Single “Live Without You” — Now Available Worldwide
Genre-blending singer/songwriter Aro Rose has officially dropped her highly anticipated new single, “Live Without You,” and it’s now streaming everywhere music lives.
A hauntingly honest track about love, loss, and letting go, “Live Without You” showcases Aro’s signature dark pop aesthetic—think cinematic piano lines, ghostly synths, and lyrics that hit where it hurts. It’s raw. It’s vulnerable. It’s that 3AM track you cry to…and then play again.
“I wrote this one straight from my gut,” Aro says. “It’s about that moment when you realize you’ve outgrown someone you thought you couldn’t live without. There’s sadness in it—but also strength.”
Self-taught and self-made, Aro Rose first turned heads with her distinctive sound that sits somewhere between Lana Del Rey’s noir romanticism and Fiona Apple’s emotional honesty. Since stepping away from the major label system, she’s carved out a fiercely independent path—and “Live Without You” is her boldest, most personal release to date.
The single is produced by longtime collaborators Gabriel Maciocia and Robert Federici, who help bring Aro’s dark visions to life with lush, atmospheric production that lets her voice shine through the shadows.
“Live Without You” is available now on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube, and all major streaming platforms.
