Announced: Carla Geneve – Don’t Be Afraid + ‘Better Believe It’

Renowned for her powerhouse vocals, raw vulnerability, and evocative storytelling, multi-award-winning artist Carla Geneve announces her third studio album, Don’t Be Afraid, set for release on Friday 17 October via Dot Dash Recordings / Remote Control. A deeply personal exploration of fear, acceptance, and love, Don’t Be Afraid draws inspiration from Seamus Heaney’s final words. Through vulnerable, piano-driven melodies and intimate lyricism, the album invites listeners to embrace their imperfections and discover strength in compassion and courage.

Carla also shares new single & music video ‘Better Believe It’, the first taste of what’s to come. Speaking on the meaning behind the new single, Carla shares; “I wrote this song after reading Virginia Woolf’s last words in the form of her suicide note. It reads as a love letter to her husband, and an apology that she couldn’t stay with him in life. That temporary state of mind that causes someone to end their life is so indescribably sad, especially when they are acutely aware of how much they have to hold onto and cherish in this world. In this song I used a phrase from that note, but changed it to so it not only expresses love, but also a readiness to face the world because of love. It’s a very personal thing to use someone’s suicide note as motive for a song, and I hope that in Woolf’s life long commitment to writing she would not mind.”
