Music Crowns is thrilled to have the exclusive honor of sharing the official video for Allyson Whitmell’s debut UK single, “Crack in My Window”. Imagine the heartfelt storytelling of Sara Bareilles, the jazz-infused charm of Laufey, and the intimate lyricism of Lizzy McAlpine—Allyson Whitmell brings all of this and more.
“Crack in My Window” is a deeply moving reflection on the emotions tied to leaving a beloved place behind. Allyson shares:
“That moment in time when you say goodbye to a place close to your heart is what I set out to capture in ‘Crack in My Window.’ The nostalgia, the grief, the gratitude. They say it’s the little things that really get you—I had a window where I once lived that was nearly impossible to close all the way, and I wrote this song thinking about how something so small and seemingly insignificant could be so missed.”
The song’s evocative piano-led arrangement is enriched by the addition of a soaring solo violin, creating a sense of longing and wistfulness. To bring this vision to life, Allyson collaborated with Jono Hill (of Bridgerton fame) and producer Ben Pelchat, who helped craft the track’s lush and immersive soundscape.
Music Crowns is truly honored to present the official video for “Crack in My Window”—a song that will resonate with anyone who has ever had to say goodbye to a place, a person, or a chapter in their life. Watch the exclusive premiere below!
