Pop singer-songwriter Litany teams up with rising star Kai Bosch for her new single, “Hello, Anxiety,” a reflective and buoyant track that highlights the complex intersection of success and mental health. Released via Nettwerk, the song follows Litany’s recent achievements, including a sold-out headline show at London’s The Lower Third and the release of “Future Us” and “Jelly Tot.”
In “Hello, Anxiety,” Litany explores the dissonance between achieving dream-like success and the relentless grip of unresolved trauma. With candid lyrics and shimmering pop production, the track captures the fragility of even the most triumphant moments, exposing how anxiety can overshadow accomplishments that should be fulfilling.
As an artist who embraces vulnerability, Litany (real name: Beth Cornell) stands out for her willingness to strip away the gloss of pop stardom and confront her raw, unfiltered truths. In discussing the inspiration behind the track, she opens up about her personal struggles: “Despite living the life I’d so desperately craved—making life-long, like-minded friends, writing songs full-time, and attending glitzy London parties—my untreated past trauma manifests in crippling anxiety, leading to everything I’d worked so hard for crashing down around me. Again.”
With this release, Litany adds her voice to the important conversation around mental health, offering a poignant reminder that success is no shield against the weight of unresolved inner turmoil.
