A haunting alternative pop anthem about love, heartbreak, and the emotional battles we fight when we struggle to let go.

There is a fine line between love and fixation, and on her new single ‘Run for Cover’, Washington DC artist Hallie Marie steps directly into that uncomfortable territory, delivering a striking alt-rock ballad that explores the emotional wreckage left behind when desire becomes all-consuming.

There are songs that make you feel something, and then there are songs that make you feel everything all at once, and Hallie Marie’s “Run for Cover” is firmly, unapologetically the latter, especially if you’ve had any experience being stuck in a toxic relationship.

Love songs often promise salvation. Hallie Marie is more interested in what happens when love becomes something else entirely.

Washington, D.C.-based singer-songwriter Hallie Marie’s latest single, “A Space of Clarity,” offers a hopeful perspective on heartbreak. Instead of being angry at the person and hating them, Marie is thankful for the moment. It’s so easy to look at past relationships with a dark, depressing tone – whether the person betrayed you or it was a clean breakup – they are always still hard to navigate.
