New year, new Bea Miller. The New Jersey-born, LA-based singer is stepping further into her authentic self, reemerging with an edgy, alternative sound captured on “lonely bitch,” her first single of the year.

Released via her newly-minted independent label gauche records and in partnership with ADA Worldwide, the angsty track captures the 23-year-old star ushering in a must-hear new era. Listen below.

Co-written with Cara Salimando (Allie X, Dua Lipa) and produced by Colin Brittain (Papa Roach, Dashboard Confessional), “lonely bitch” channels a late 90’s / early 2000’s alternative rock feel – the kind many remember creeping into pop culture consciousness as it climbed its way to the top of the charts.

Asked about the inspiration behind the angsty song, Bea simply shared, “I thought I loved someone, but it turned out I am a lonely bitch after all.”

Teaming up with creative partner Gina Manning / GIZELLA (Robert Pattinson, Teen Vogue, GQ), Bea expanded on the message with a stunning visual to match. Filtered through a grunge/glam lens and inspired by dissociation, Manning brings the song to life in a music video that perfectly captures Bea’s growth as an artist, her confidence, and undeniable bold direction. Watch the “lonely bitch” music video below and keep an eye out for Bea’s next chapter as it unfolds. Stream HERE.
