New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Indie-pop gem Anna Shoemaker has unveiled new track "Close To The Sun," offering the first glimpse into her new era of music. Her lyrical prowess shines through in this track, as she explores themes of ambition, hubris, and the delicate balance between reaching for greatness and being happy with where you are at in the present moment. The accompanying visualizer is apropos as it follows Anna on a road trip, foreshadowing her journey of self-discovery and new beginnings.
About the song, Anna says: "This is an "it's not you, it's me" song. I was really having a hard time balancing everything in my life, one might say I was girl-bossing a little bit too close to the sun! Ultimately everything sort of imploded, I have a lot more songs coming but I wanted to begin with the catalyst- when I wrote this I realized I needed to make a massive change."
Following the release of her 2023 EP Hey Anna, a breakup and "a go west, young lady" move, her latest track marks the beginning of a new chapter. Known for her combination of alt-leaning production, intoxicating pop melodies, and notably honest lyricism, Anna's songs vividly capture the turmoil, charm, and introspection of young adulthood.
This fall, Anna will be supporting Joe P on his headline tour, kicking off
September 14 in Asbury Park NJ.
