Honddu channel heartache and protection on new single 'Winifred'

Welsh electronic duo Honddu return with their haunting new single 'Winifred', co-produced by Islet member JT.

Built around a message of unwavering care and emotional protection, the track speaks directly to the experience of growing up and confronting emotional pain for the first time. At its core lies a simple but deeply affecting reassurance: “Winifred, dear, I’ve got your back with unfailing love.”

Sonically, 'Winifred' drifts between cinematic alt-pop and warped indie electronica, pairing trembling synth textures with an atmosphere that feels both intimate and unsettling. There are echoes of Portishead and Sylvan Esso in its balance of fragility and tension, but Honddu’s approach feels uniquely spectral and emotionally raw.

The duo continue to build a reputation for immersive, tape-worn production that prioritises feeling over polish, and 'Winifred' may be their most affecting release yet.
