Kirsten Izer Shares New Song ‘No One’s Invited’

Publicist-turned-singer Kirsten Izer continues her push into music-making with “No One’s Invited,” the second single from her forthcoming debut album. The new track’s accompanying black-and-white video, which was directed and edited by Izer, shows the artist in her Los Angeles apartment while living out a one-woman party.

“No One’s Invited” is a self-reflection “that explores the complex sensations of being alone in a crowd and the agony of saying what you mean,” according to a statement. The song was recorded and produced by Izer, mixed by Joe Michelini, and mastered by West Side Music. Izer will play a release show to celebrate “No One’s Invited” tonight (Nov. 10) at KDM Studios in Los Angeles.

“If I’m being honest, I initially started writing this song back in 2020 when I was tired of sharing a wall with a roommate during COVID,” Izer tells SPIN. “I have absolutely nothing against that roommate, but I’m pretty certain no one wants to be stuck at home with anyone for such a long, intense period. After that though, the song flourished into something bigger. Post-COVID, when I started going out again, I found myself getting bored at parties a lot, or trying to have a conversation with someone and leaving it feeling like I was misunderstood. When it comes down to it, I’m pretty introverted and I love my own company. And there’s nothing wrong with that. So why not write an anthem about it?”
