Taylor Roche – “better than home” single
“When the world opened back up in 2022, I was desperate to leave again as it felt like everyone around me was going off and chasing their dreams. It triggered an insecure attachment to the idea that I wanted to be something more than what I was, in my career and in life. Writing this song sort of released me from those thoughts.” – Taylor Roche explained
Reflecting on the feeling of being stuck in one place for too long, “better than home” is inspired by the desire to be anywhere else than home. The retrospective, indie-pop tune contains a relatable narrative and ear-pleasing vocals that will resonate well with fans of Bazzi, Jeremy Zucker, and joan. Also, “better than home” possesses thudding drums and groovy bass-laden instrumentation flavored with a chill, walk-down-the-block-to-blow-off-steam vibration. Furthermore, the song takes a sonically softer direction than Taylor Roche’s previously released singles, day&night, and lovemesober.
