New York-based rising singer-songwriter Camryn Quinlan returns with “ex box,” a stunning new single from her forthcoming debut EP, “If We’re Being Honest” (March 14, 2025). Politely nudging her sound into new territory, “ex box” combines touches of electronic-pop vibrance with her trademark bittersweet storytelling to grant us a track that feels both personal and relatable to the masses.
“ex box,” produced by long-time collaborator Baldvin Hlynsson, fuses contemporary electronic textures with lived-in instrumentation, creating a claustrophobic yet intimate soundscape. The song immediately draws in listeners with an anthem for teenage heartbreak, and the ghost of a lost love still feels like a favorite song. Camryn’s thoughtful lyricism comes through, vividly capturing the sadness of lost love.
“ex box” is hardly a sad-bastard ballad and a certified melody. The chorus arrives like a whiplash of emotion, accompanied by a melody that forces hands to sing along. Whether reflecting on your heartbreak or vibrating with its intoxicating groove, the track is irresistibly all-consuming.
Camryn Quinlan has always had a skill for taking personal stories and making them feel universal, and with “ex box,” she enters a new chapter that showcases her talent for merging raw emotion with mainstream appeal.
