Judy Pearson – “Afterthought”
Judy Pearson’s new single “Afterthought” can make you sing along, and her performance is wonderful. She pulled from the story of Epimetheus, the figure in Greek mythology whose name means hindsight, and used it to frame her own experience with an ex who only reached for her when things went wrong. That link between ancient myth and modern relationships gives the song a sharp edge and makes it stand out compared to a standard breakup track.
I also think it’s interesting how Judy has been building a pattern in her writing, weaving history into her music in a way that comes across as very personal. Last year’s “Remember Me” leaned on Tudor history, and now “Afterthought” draws on mythology. It’s a cool signature she’s developing. Make sure to follow Judy on Instagram and Spotify to keep up with her new singles, her Christmas release, and the debut EP she has lined up for next year, you’ll want to stay in the loop on this journey.
