On The Heels Of Her Debut EP Swimming Lessons Genevieve Stokes Tells The Story Of Longing And Heartache In An On-Again Off-Again Relationship. Stokes Said “I Wrote ‘Habits’ When I Was Resisting The Inevitable Changes That Needed To Happen In My Life And Felt Trapped By My Own Thought Patterns And Relationships.” Though Her Unique Alt-Pop Sound Is Influenced By Iconic Musicians Like Cat Power And Regina Spektor Stokes Said Her Recent Songwriting Has Been “inspired By Fairytales And By Revisiting Childhood.” For “Habits ” She Was Particularly Intrigued By Alice In Wonderland And “the Idea Of Going Down The Rabbit Hole.” Developing The Stream-Of-Consciousness Song She Said “I Wanted To Capture The World That I Visit While Writing And The Feeling Of Growing Up But Still Retaining A Childlike Wonderment.” That World Is Maintained In Her Ethereal Visualizer. Shot In Stokes’ Backyard In Portland Maine The Video Is A Part Of A Larger Vision Stokes Has For Her Music. Including Hand-Made Comics And Masks Stokes Said “All Of The Visuals Build A Narrative Throughout My New Music And The Visualizer For ‘Habits’ Is The First Glimpse Into This World.” Drawn By Her Sister Madeline She Said The Comics “serve As A Prologue To Each Music Video And Introduce The Storyline And Setting.” Then The Masks Which Were Made By Bella Harvey Are Not Only Featured In The Visualizer But Will Re-Emerge In Future Music Videos. As Stokes Channels Beautiful Scenery And Performs Gut-Wrenching Ballads If You Are Getting Phoebe Bridgers Vibes It May Have Something To Do With Her Producer. She Collaborated With The Esteemed Producer Tony Berg Who Is Known For Working With Taylor Swift Phoebe Bridgers And Paul McCartney. Though Stokes Said She Was Initially Overwhelmed And “cried In Front Of Him For An Hour ” She Ultimately Appreciated Berg Challenging Her. She Said “I Learned To Express My Opinions More Confidently And Know The Artist I Want To Be.”
