Alt-pop singer-songwriter Madds Buckley delivers a gut-wrenching emotional plunge on “Overboard,” the first single off her upcoming 2026 EP. Known for her viral breakout “The Red Means I Love You” (80M+ Spotify streams), Buckley returns with a theatrical, folk-tinged alt-pop sound shaped by raw confessional songwriting. “Overboard” captures the unraveling of a relationship from within. For fans of emotionally resonant indie-pop, Buckley continues to carve out a niche in the next gen space. How did your first confession go? For me, it was at 23: sitting on her childhood couch, the night before her friend flew home. ‘Overboard’ dives headfirst into emotions that threaten to drown you; and when the water’s already at your chest, questioning whether you’ll survive the waves over your head. Some things you can’t take back, and taking the plunge leaves your heart racing and salt water flowing. ‘Overboard’ is for the anxious, the overthinkers, and for anyone who’s ever gone overboard in matters of the heart.
