A real-life crush gets the cinematic treatment on the latest from Ally Evenson. The indie singer-songwriter has dropped the official music video for “Crash My Car For You,” an emotionally poignant track from her sophomore album ‘Speed Kills,’ which is out now everywhere.
The song digs into the ache of an unreturned crush. “This song is about a real-life crush I had/have on someone,” Ally shares. “It hurts to have a crush sometimes.” That push and pull between longing and frustration runs right through the track, giving it its raw, confessional pull.
The album rollout came with a memorable event. Evenson celebrated the release of ‘Speed Kills’ with a sold-out premiere of the album’s complete visual counterpart at Brain Dead Studios in Los Angeles. The one-night-only show was featured in galleries by PEOPLE Magazine and E! News.
The evening leaned into the personal too. Ally enchanted the crowd with an acoustic set and sat down for a live Q&A with director and frequent collaborator Antony Muse, moderated by Mikael Wood of the Los Angeles Times. With ‘Speed Kills’ now out and its full visual world unveiled, “Crash My Car For You” lands as one of its most affecting moments.
