Daisy Briggs turns nostalgia into empowerment on new single 'cold shoulder'

Daisy Briggs’ latest single 'cold shoulder' arrives like a warm, late-summer breeze. With this release, she steps fully into her own, crafting a song that blends reflective nostalgia with unshakable self-assurance, transforming a personal story into a universal anthem about self-worth and moving on.

From the very first notes, we are transported into the vivid, sunlit imagery of past summers. Yet rather than dwelling on regret, Briggs turns the lens on empowerment; confronting the “player” who refuses to take a hint becomes a backdrop for her assertion of boundaries and agency. Her tender yet confident vocals weave between wistful reflection and quiet triumph, carrying an intoxicating warmth that invites us to feel the liberation she’s embraced.

Produced alongside Jordan Davis, the track balances melodic lightness with a subtle buoyancy, wrapping us in layers of acoustic shimmer and breezy instrumentation. It’s a sound that feels at once effortless and meticulously crafted, reflecting her evolution as both a songwriter and storyteller.

The accompanying visual, set against winding country roads and the open air of her truck, reinforces this sense of freedom. Briggs radiates joy and resilience, showing that closure is not always about confrontation but standing tall and choosing oneself.

Drawing inspiration from the likes of Miranda Lambert, Sheryl Crow, and Sam Hunt, Daisy Briggs fuses pop-country polish with real-world authenticity. 'cold shoulder' is a melodic invitation for women everywhere to embrace their worth unapologetically.
