On February 3, 2026- Christopher Pappas of Elle Belle released their new intimate single “Hot Little Daggers” that radiates sensuality and addiction to wanting someone. “Hot Little Daggers” is a single that would play on the radio in an old bar due to the rustic instrumentation and authentic vocals that are quiet, but yet filled with desire. The single is not explicit and allows the listener to understand the deep longing of a slow burning feeling of craving an individual.
“This is a love song that favors tension over release. Got some layered vocals that are intimate but not fragile, trusting that the listener will lean in.”
Interviewer: “Before talking about the new release; can you give us a little insight about you as an artist for new fans?“
Christopher: “I think these are the top 5 things new fans should know about me:
1.) AllMusic Guide called me an “experimental pop maverick”
2.) I’ve written music for NASA
3.) I play FOR KEEPS
4.) I’ve been releasing a single every month
5.) I’m in the vöïḑ”
Interviewer: “Does the single have a specific theme to it that helped you shape the song as a whole?“
Christopher: “I wanted it to feel sexy and silly. I think being silly is sexy. Flirting is all about being tongue in cheek, right?“
Interviewer: “Is there a part of the song that feels more personal to you? Any lyrics?”
Christopher: “The part from 0:39-0:47 is probably the most personal part.”
Interviewer: “What’s the main message you want fans to understand with this new single?“
Christopher: “Maybe they know somebody who makes them feel this way.”
