Publicity Campaign: Lara Villani- ‘Make it go away’

Lara Villani is set to turn heartbreak into high art with the release of her latest single, ‘Make it go away’, July 16 This marks the final taste of her highly anticipated debut EP, ‘Whiplash’, landing in October 2025.

‘Make it go away’ finds Lara at her most vulnerable and magnetic, weaving together pop, and raw, confessional lyricism. The track dives into the ache of holding onto love that’s slipping through your fingers, a bittersweet anthem for anyone who’s ever wanted to let go, but couldn’t quite cut the cord. “This song is about knowing a relationship isn’t working, but still hoping they’ll love you back the way you love them,” Lara shares. “It’s painful, but it’s also beautiful, and there’s power in letting yourself feel it all.”

Accompanying the release is a music video produced by Hunger Digital - co-directed by Laura Semple and Lousie McKnoulty. The clip showcases Lara Villani reflecting on a past relationship. “I wanted to capture a visual world where you see the artist reminiscing on the fun times had with someone special, with snippets of knowing they’re not 100% into you as much as you are into them,” says Laura on the music video. Each clip from the EP continues the story of ‘Whiplash’ - the throes of love, lust and romance while coming into your own.

Following acclaimed singles ‘Losing my mind’ and ‘I love it’, Lara’s latest release cements her sound of being bold, honest, and unafraid to bare it all.
