“Hurt So Bad” is the brand new single from London three-piece Girl Ray, and their first new music since the recent critically acclaimed album “Prestige”.
The band share on the track, “Hurt So Bad” was written during the pandemic, when I was working on writing our third album and still deciding what the feel of it would be. Initially I thought that a more electronic/house inspired sound would be a good fit for us, and with “Give Me Your Love” and “Hurt So Bad” demoed, we visited Al Doyle and Joe Goddard’s studio near Brick Lane to flesh them out. They were a great match for the songs, and we loved playing with their mountains of rare synths.
Although our album ended up being more live, I think you can still hear the beginnings of our disco inspiration in this track.”
