Jazmin Bean has released brand-new single Favourite Toy ahead of their upcoming tour of the UK and Europe.

The follow-up track to Piggie, released earlier this year, Favourite Toy sees Jazmin tackle their experiences with toxic relationships, of which they were unable to break free.

“It looks back at my relationship with love and sex with a storytelling perspective, exploring the lengths you’ll go to when you’re conditioned from such a young age not to understand what love is,” Jazmin explains. “Unlike my older songwriting, this track juxtaposes sound, production and lyrics. It acknowledges the sadness I felt in my self-worth, but the song’s driving melody has an overall sense of hopefulness and catharsis.”

Following on from their performance at Download Festival this summer, Jazmin is hitting the road this October for The Terrified Tour. Get your tickets now.
