New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Alt-RnB artist, Elysia, released her most soulfully zen single to date with 'Cherry Moon', which is due for official release on November 11th.
Elysia defines her music as the breeze that hits your ears on a hot summer day; it is the moment after the moment, a pause for reflection, the calm after a storm. The single features rap vocals from South Side Denny and Pastels (pianist, producer); the rest was left to Elysia, who used her elysian vocals to serenade her listeners into serenity while exploring visceral emotion.
The Melbourne-based artist takes inspiration from real-life epiphanies, Amy Winehouse's honesty, Frank Ocean's vulnerability, Kanye's confidence and Lauryn Hill's inspiring elegance.
Elysia said: "My friend of two years turned into my soulmate in the space of one night; something changed in the way I looked at him; suddenly, my eyes had cherry heart filters. We spent every day together in the summer; we blossomed into something pure and inspirational for this song.
As soon as the jazzy chords started to spill, I was lovestruck with the single too. It is a sneaky 'this is how I feel about you' track, recording the conversation between our souls at the beginning of our relationship.
Music can make funny things happen; you say things in raw form and it transforms into art; it is magic."
Amelia Vandergast at A&R Factory said: "Cherry Moon is sweet enough to make those three little words feel even less eloquent and efficacious at communicating passion. It is a sublime score of soul, ethereal harmony and rhythmic ambience."
Melbourne, Australia-based singer-songwriter Elysia has been honing in on her expressive craft since a young age. With plenty of live dates, including an opening slot for Kaiit, and session work under her belt, she's primed and ready to make a serious impression on the airwaves as a solo RnB artist. With her first demo release, she garnered 2,000 streams in one night, and there are plenty more singles and an EP currently in production.
