Sophia Tice Drops New Single 'WAY OUT'

Sophia Tice has never been one to sit still creatively, and on her latest single ‘WAY OUT’, she leans fully into discomfort, tension, and emotional honesty.

The track signals a confident step into art pop and indie pop territory, showcasing an artist unafraid to sharpen her sound while deepening her narrative focus. It’s a song that feels deliberate in its evolution, striking a balance between immediacy and introspection.

Written from the perspective of a friend trapped in a toxic relationship, ‘WAY OUT’ thrives on its emotional complexity. Tice doesn’t dramatise for effect; instead, she allows the chaos, fear, and flickers of empowerment to coexist naturally. Her vocal performance is restrained yet piercing, capturing the internal tug-of-war between staying and leaving with quiet devastation.

The production, created alongside Jackson Lowe, is equally considered. Live piano lines anchor the track, while textured indie pop flourishes ripple through the mix, lending the song a cinematic depth. There’s a palpable sense of space in the arrangement — moments where silence speaks just as loudly as sound — heightening the emotional weight without overwhelming it.

“I wanted to explore what it feels like to be caught in that internal battle. This song is a little darker, a little louder, and a bit more experimental than what I’ve released before, and I’m thrilled to dive further into the indie pop world with this new direction.”

Drawing influence from artists like Lorde, Billie Eilish, and The Japanese House, Tice still manages to carve out a space distinctly her own. ‘WAY OUT’ feels like a turning point — not a departure from her past work, but a sharpening of her voice, her vision, and her willingness to sit in emotional darkness to find something honest on the other side.
