New York, NY (Top40 Charts) LA-based Scottish singer/songwriter,
Natalie Clark, is exclusively premiering her new single + music video for "Grown Ass Woman"" via Aesthetic Magazine today!
On the track, Clark shares, "This song is about my introduction to L.A. I had just moved from Scotland and couldn't afford rent so was cat sitting. I was longing to have that stable, 'normal' life when I could afford to take my mum out for tea or go see a movie like it wouldn't break the bank. There's something about the idea of the American
Dream in this single; the concept that your dreams might not be easy but are always possible. Nothing comes for free but it's worth the hustle! My dream is that people can watch the video and listen to the song and hopefully relate and feel empowered to keep going on their journey."
Scottish singer-songwriter
Natalie Clark, who has reaped plaudits from Richard Branson and BBC
Radio 1's Nick Grimshaw, launched her self-released debut EP, Eagles, in Scotland before heading stateside. Selected as a Mercedes Benz KTLA "Artist to Watch,"
Natalie was featured in the Mercedes Benz U.S. commercial campaign which also included performances at the famous Roxy on Sunset, and The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles. She was handpicked to open for the Grammy award winning Indigo Girls tour and has been recording in L.A. when not busy touring the U.S.
Natalie was also featured on Season 10 of NBC's TV show, The Voice, where
Christina Aguilera sang praises of her "cool, powerful voice," and
Blake Shelton referred to her verses as "incredible."
After giving up her teaching career in Scotland to pursue her dream of writing and playing music, the rising soul-pop artist made headlines in the U.K. when Branson invited her to sing on-stage at a BBC
Radio 1 Academy session in Glasgow. Clark accepted his impromptu challenge, and sang "Weakness" from her debut EP. It prompted Branson to proclaim: "That was absolutely and utterly stunning - no backing band, no musicians, no forewarning." He later called her "inspiring." Grimshaw, who was hosting the BBC
Radio 1 Academy event, played '"Weakness" and further sang Clark's praises on his BBC
Radio 1 show the following day.
