Britny Lobas: A Journey of Sobriety, Resilience, and Musical Rebirth
Britny Lobas, a pop rock star from Austin, Texas, is ready to drop the sober version of her intense track “Hollow” on April 12th. This powerhouse artist, originally from Cleveland, Ohio, has used her journey towards sobriety as the inspiration for this new release, which is a raw and powerful anthem of resilience.
Britny’s path to sobriety began with the struggles of battling alcohol addiction, which reached a low point in 2022. However, her near-death experience in the ICU spurred her transformation and the creation of "Hollow." Today, she is almost two years sober and revisiting the track to align it with her original vision.
