Press release -
I Killed My Imaginary Friend - new song by Willie Dowling
I Killed My Imaginary Friend is a new song by singer/songwriter/producer Willie Dowling.
The song is available to stream and download now.
I Killed My Imaginary Friend is featured on Wille Dowling’s forthcoming album of piano driven songs titled 'The Simpleton’ out in the summer of 2024.
“I guess this is probably a song about the constant battle with the fragile alter ego of the musician, quietly nagging away about missed opportunities, or pointing out one’s weaknesses and peculiarities", says Willie Dowling. "Frankly, I don’t really want to think about what it might mean so much. It came out far too easily to be entirely comfortable.”
Alongside Willie Dowling’s piano, bass, vocal and production efforts, I Killed My Imaginary Friend also features Darby Todd on drums.
I Killed My Imaginary Friend is the third song to be released from the forthcoming album The Simpleton. The Cure and the title track The Simpleton are available to stream and download now.
