London-based/California-born indie singer/songwriter Sophia Alexa comes to Wolf in a Suit with the bittersweet tale of "Hall Pass". With this track she opens up heart and soul to discuss a topic that few like to talk about, but it's quite real: self-sabotage. It's hard to say it, but I am pretty sure that more than a few of us are afraid of things going too well and our minds tend to expect the worst, making internal preparations for it. She does this, I do this and more than likely you do as well, it's not bad, but it's not good either, it can limit how you enjoy the beautiful things life has to offer.
"Hall Pass" knows that our hearts don't want to deal with pain, so it's easier to expect the worst before it happens, and sometimes without our full knowledge, we can end up making it happen. It's a very human and honest soundscape that embraces this concept and even gives it a catchy and easy to connect with term, the title of the song, the way-out you give others to leave. So listen closely and explore these verses, because in them you might find bits and pieces of yourself. Enjoy the ride of this contemporary must-listen gem!

“I wrote hall pass because I wanted to capture the feeling of self-sabotage. I’ve always had this fear that when something is going too well I’m just waiting for it to fall apart. It’s almost a form of protection and being okay with someone leaving before you get hurt, which is why I loved the title hall pass, it’s giving someone an out.”
