June McDoom is clearing house, and she makes it sound like a party. "Get Out Of My Life" is the second single from her forthcoming debut album Follow The Light, and it's a folk-pop gem built on whimsy and lift. She's washing off the draining energy, the negative pull, whatever was weighing her down.
The result is a stunner. McDoom has been circling this sound for a while now, from the hushed, hazy textures of her 2022 self-titled EP to the dreamier corners she explored on tracks like "Come Fly Away." Here she pushes brighter, lets the melody breathe, and turns a kiss-off into something buoyant.
There's real craft in how light she keeps it. The subject matter could sink into bitterness, but she floats above it, all warmth and airy guitar. That balance is the whole trick.
A debut album is a big moment, and this is the sound of an artist stepping fully into her light.
Get out of the way.
