5. Avonlea releases brand-new single

Avonlea dropped an emotional new single “Stranger” following the release of “Again” in October. The song was written after the 19-year-old went through a difficult breakup. “This guy was my partner and best friend for two really pivotal years of my life. It was the strangest, loneliest culture shock cutting him out of it,” she says. “‘Stranger’ is about putting yourself back out there. Even though it’s unsettling after years of comfort.” You can stream and purchase the new track here.
