Lisa Crawley – Don’t Delete Me: New Song Of The Day

Lisa Crawley releases Don’t Delete Me and promises a return to New Zealand soon.

Here’s the blurb with more:

LOS ANGELES, CA – New Zealand-born, indie-pop chanteuse Lisa Crawley debuts an affecting and humorous music video for single “Don’t Delete Me,” directed by Harry Katz, featuring Crawley as both herself and acting various characters, and of course, a pink piano.

“… a delicate yet rather humorous clip that is her position on this whole issue of ‘deleting’ people from your life. Crawley found inspiration to write the song from the challenges of staying relevant in a world shaped by constant change.” – V13

“Don’t Delete Me” was written by Lisa Crawley and frequent collaborator Rob Kleiner and inspired by the challenges of staying relevant in the ever-changing worlds of social media, music and relationships…. “and also being hacked for three months this year!”

For the video concept, Lisa brought these personal experiences to life: “Breakups, obsessive/anxious thoughts, combined with my love of cheesy insurance billboards and colorful pianos” Lisa further explains, “we’re so bombarded with social media that unless we’re blocked/deleted (which is certainly easier than ever these days), it’s difficult to avoid somebody and not dwell on what could have been. And, if you do delete someone as a quick fix, you may start hallucinating and seeing them (and their pet) as an insurance salesperson!”

“Don’t Delete Me” will have an alternate version released on Friday, December 2nd. The singles follow her 2021 critically acclaimed EP Looking for Love (In A Major).
