It's been a big weekend for carolesdaughter! As well as releasing her EP please put me in a medically induced coma, the alt. star has shared a new video, and announced several UK shows ahead of this summer's Reading & Leeds.

Out now via Arista Records, carolesdaughter reveals of her debut collection, "This EP feels like my introduction to the world. It’s extremely honest and vulnerable and it almost is like giving up a little piece of me. All these songs I wrote in rehab as a teenager when I was first trying to overcome my addiction, and even if someone can’t relate to the specifics, it’s about coming of age and finding yourself – which everyone has to do at some point."

To coincide with the EP drop, the musician – real name Thea Taylor – has also released a new video for the song Audrey, which she says is "based on a real dancer I met the first time I went to a strip club. It was kind of like a Cinderella story, and I never saw her again – but I gave her an entire unsolicited life story. The video is based on that real night and maybe what I wish would’ve actually happened."
