Overview
- The Spotify 'Countdown To' conversation, held July 7, brought Abrams and Rodrigo together to talk songwriting, friendship and the new album’s themes.
- Daughter From Hell is scheduled for release on July 17 and has been promoted with singles including “Hit the Wall,” which reached No. 34 on the Billboard Hot 100, and “Look at My Life,” released June 25.
- Abrams said she began writing the album while touring for The Secret of Us and that the project grew over two years with a final track, “Cold Goodbyes,” completed near the end of that period.
- She told Rodrigo she has tried to change how she writes about real people, moving away from a careless, accusatory approach toward songs that show multiple perspectives.
- Rodrigo praised tracks such as “Death Wish” and, in some reports, “Afflictions,” and her public endorsement and recent chart success add high-profile support to Abrams’ July release.
