We’re excited to share that Chloe Hawes has just dropped a brand new acoustic version of Polaroid, one of the standout tracks from their debut full-length Remains/Reminders.

The original version of Polaroid hit hard with gritty Americana and punk grit. This acoustic take strips the track down to its emotional core. With nothing but voice and guitar, Chloe’s storytelling shines even brighter, offering an intimate and raw reinterpretation of the song. It’s a quiet moment that cuts deep.

The acoustic version was recorded live, capturing all the nuance and vulnerability of the lyrics, and serves as a reminder of Chloe’s roots in DIY folk-punk songwriting. Fans of Katie Malco, or early Frank Turner will find a lot to love here.

If Remains/Reminders gave us the big full-band moments, this version of Polaroid feels like sitting across from Chloe in a dimly lit room while the song is sung directly to you.
