Black Honey have shared a new track, ‘Run For Cover’, which singer Izzy B. Phillips hopes will inspire women to leave their boyfriends.The raucous new song was released today (September 18) and follows the Brighton band’s July single ‘Beaches‘.

It was written with close friend Mike Kerr, who is one half of Royal Blood.Phillips explained of the track: “It’s fun but on a bit of a knife edge of risk and weird.

Sex can be clumsy, emotional and complex. There’s so much baggage that it comes with. We wrote the song from a man’s perspective.

It felt empowering to flip it to the female gaze” [quotes via The Line Of Best Fit].She continued: “I think I’m exploring both power and my weakness in equal measure.
