Give Me a Minute is the debut studio album by American singer-songwriter Lizzy McAlpine, released independently on August 13, 2020. It was produced by Philip Etherington, McAlpine, Dillan Witherow, and Ehren Ebbage, and preceded by the release of the single "Over-the-Ocean Call" on July 13, 2020.[1]

Composition

Give Me a Minute is an indie folk[2] and folk-pop album,[3] described as "introspective" and "cottagecore-esque",[4] that "explores love lost and found".[4] The songs "To the Mountains", "Means Something", and "Pancakes for Dinner" were highlighted as standouts.[4]

In an interview in 2021, McAlpine stated:

"All the projects that I have put out have been chapters of my life, the Give Me A Minute chapter was a very specific time period. I was going through a breakup and ended up alone, then meeting someone new and was trying to figure out how to do all that. It’s weird because that album doesn’t feel like who I am as an artist anymore which is cool because I can always have it to look back on and reflect. I would describe it as young and naïve because I know so many more things about life now; it feels like I am so much more mature as an artist now."[5]
