Kacia, the Portsmouth-born singer-songwriter known for his emotive approach to the alt-pop genre, has released his latest single, 'Living It Out'. This track serves as a passionate anthem for those seeking solace from toxic relationships and the journey towards self-love. Kacia expressed excitement about the record's evolution alongside him, stating, "It's followed me from being 17 to being 22 and about to graduate from university."

With previous hits like 'Young Fun Dumb', 'Night Out', 'Plastic Straws', and 'Drifting Apart', Kacia has built a reputation for capturing the nuances of life's emotional landscape. 'Living It Out' is a pivotal addition to his upcoming album, 'What if Life is Just a Movie?', continuing his exploration of complex themes.

In collaboration with producer Matthew Fisher, who has been a long-time friend and collaborator, the production emphasizes a mature evolution in Kacia's sound. The song's organic writing process allowed for a rapid creation timeline, leading Kacia to relate deeply to the final product.

The single tackles themes of loss and longing, woven together with poignant lyrics and captivating melodies. The accompanying music video, directed by Tom Knibbs from Silent K Productions, revisits a location previously showcased in 'Night Out', symbolizing the passage of time and personal growth.

Kacia's influences, which include The 1975, No Rome, and Lany, resonate throughout his bold songwriting. Rising from underground buzz to mainstream attention, his music has earned airtime on outlets like Mollie King's BBC Radio 1 show. Recently, he has been featured on major Apple Music playlists including New Music Daily and Pop Deluxe.

As Kacia prepares to perform at the upcoming Victorious Festival on August 24, fans can expect an engaging live showcase of both new and favorite tracks. With 'Living It Out', he solidifies his position within the alt-pop landscape, articulating the complexities of human relationships.
