Maisy Kay is a 16 year old self-taught pianist whose voice effuses theatricality at some moments and tenderness during others. She’s without doubt a potential pop star in the making and she’s ready to slay all your faves.
The UK-born and LA-based iron-lunged ingenue is a provocative lyricist in the vein of Tori Amos. She’s garnered praise for her piercing debut single “Blood Filled Tears“, which talk about a close friend’s suicide and it was released in late June.
The new single is brillant and where the singer shows her mezzo-soprano vocal range with confessional lyrics to send a positive message to her peers as well as herself. It’s a poetically incisive self-acceptance anthem. About the song she said:
It’s a very important song for me. It’s about the struggle that most of us go through at some point: acceptance. Whether it’s from your family, friends, or even yourself, the process can be brutal. For me, this song highlights the journey of battling with my inner critic, and ultimately shows that accepting yourself is the hardest challenge. But with facing that challenge, comes the greatest reward
The song was premiered exclusively on Yahoo! Music, and it was released on iTunes on July 24th via ROLA Records.
