If you like the sound of and song-writing storytelling from artists like Carly Rae Jepsen and Robyn, then chances are you’ll like Essy, if you’re not aware of her already. As a synth-pop artist who, since she began releasing her own tracks in 2019, has already racked up 6 million streams on Spotify alone and been shouted out by The Chainsmokers on social media, she certainly knows how to make an impact with and on music fans.
With her new album ‘Cry For Me’ due out later in the Spring, PopWrapped are delighted to premiere the fourth single to be taken from the collection called “Dancing Around The Feeling”, about which Essy says: “I wrote this song on my first solo writing trip to Los Angeles over a year ago. At the time, I was going through a difficult breakup and had no idea how to face the situation while being alone in a big city.”
She goes on to add: “My coping strategy for a while was to pretend it never happened, but eventually it all caught up to me. This song is about learning to dance through the pain, through the grief, through the ending of something hard. It’s okay if you can’t face something right away, but if you keep moving the path will always clear.”
