The New Year is considered by many to be a time of reflection and to think about what we’ve achieved in life and still hope to achieve in the days, weeks, months and years to come. Reflecting on the past is the subject of the new single from Cheyenne Elliott called “Crash.”
An upcoming talent, she’s walking in the footsteps of music greatness; her grandmother is the iconic Dionne Warwick, and it’s evident from this release that both talent and a passion for music have been passed down to her in some style. If that connection wasn’t enough; she’s also the cousin of the late, great Whitney Houston and her father co-wrote the Luther Vandross smash-hit “Here and Now.”
“Crash” reminisces on lost love, yet brings with it a powerful and hopeful message that brighter, happier times can and do come after the pain and heartache. “I try to live my life by focusing on growth rather than regret,” Cheyenne shares. “I’ve learned a lot from many of the amazing humans I’ve shared relationships with and I am truly grateful for them all.”
Despite still being a fairly new name on the music scene, Cheyenne is no stranger to performing. She made her first stage appearance at 9-years-old in front of a crowd of 10,000 fans, singing “That’s What Friends Are For” alongside her grandmother, and in 2018, she appeared on national TV as a contestant on The Four, an American Idol-style show with judges Sean “P Diddy” Combs, DJ Khaled, Meghan Trainor and Fergie.
Her new single was written with Lisa Gressett and composer Mixtape Seoul, with the video filmed on the streets of SoHo, NY and directed by Tony K. “It tells the story of love not only being remembered but cherished,” Cheyenne explains. “There is comfort in the familiar and sometimes a sudden flashback can be a reminder of how meaningful a person was and perhaps still is.”
