Camryn Quinlan (@camrynquinlanofficial) is a New York-based singer-songwriter. Not too long ago, she released an official music video for her latest single “ex box,” taken from her upcoming debut EP “If We’re Being Honest,” available on the 14th of March 2025.

Showcasing her most commercial-minded songwriting to date, “ex box” brings a more electronic-pop sound to reflect against the rootsy nature of previous releases, but crucially retains the soulful, heartfelt songwriting that characterizes Camryn as an artist.

Produced by longtime collaborator Baldvin Hlynsson, “ex box” brings a warming blend of electronic elements and organic instrumentation which is both understated yet strikingly cinematic. With a hooky chorus to die for with relatable lyricism that carries a story of teenage heartache. Camryn’s introspective, heartfelt, and ever-relatable lyricism shines brightly throughout the track.

In her own words, Camryn explains, “The meaning behind ‘ex box’ is as simple as keeping things that are left behind from exes. The box of cards, gifts, jewelry, movie tickets, and other sentiments that came from that special person. It’s almost like keeping those physical memories, kept the person in your life.

I made the song when I was starting my freshman year of high school, and I was just writing in my bed one day, thinking about the box that I had in my room. It was finally recorded three years later when I met my Icelandic producer Baldvin. He flew from Iceland to New York for us to work together and then the song was all put together. It’s crazy how these things happen.”

Having built a strong following (215k on Instagram, 46k on TikTok) gigging across New York, the still teenage singer-songwriter showcases her strikingly complete sound, despite being only her second official release.

Camryn’s upcoming EP promises a collection of songs that are both lyrically profound and musically rich as she showcases her strikingly complete sound, drawing inspiration from a diverse range of artists including Taylor Swift, Kacey Musgraves, and Chappell Roan.
