This month, London-based Geordie girl Carly Burns releases another song straight from the heart, raising awareness for an incredibly important subject matter. For Carly’s fourth release, she dedicates ‘Now You Fly’ to her friend, who sadly took his own life during the pandemic.
The song speaks volumes to people who suffer in silence and Carly hopes her listeners will connect and gain strength through the music.Being a musical theatre performer as well as a singer-songwriter, Carly is no stranger to the struggles and demands artists face every day in order to maintain their careers. Whether it’s financial struggles, self-esteem, confidence, anxiety or depression, the industry can be very demanding and testing. Carly wants to use her platform to raise awareness that you are not alone.The song is beautifully composed, emotional, and powerful, forcing its listeners to really get into their feelings and find strength in that. The lyric ‘Now You Fly’ relates to the acceptance of the grief and being able to find peace knowing that the suffering is now over.The song will be released on the birthday of Carly’s friend, who passed away.January can be a month of real struggles and mental health dips, and Carly hopes her single will bring strength in this difficult month to those who may need it. She says, “I have been developing this song for a year and a half, and the whole process has been like therapy to me. Through some insanely intense lows, my music has allowed me to release my grief and find strength. The recording studio day was extremely emotional, and I hope my listeners can hear my heart being poured out because that is exactly what I did.”Since starting her career on the stage, Carly has performed in lead roles in London and travelled the world in renowned productions. These include playing the Acid Queen in ‘The Who’s Tommy’, alongside X Factor Rockstar Giovanni Spano, and the role of Linda in the UK Tour of producer Bill Kenwright’s award-winning hit musical ‘Blood Brothers’.Carly also performed in the ITV series ‘Walk the Line’, drawing praise from Gary Barlow for singing her own song in not just her Geordie accent but also using Geordie dialect, something she used again in her summer 2022 hit ‘Sweetheart’.
Dmillyyy kicked off the month of love with the lead single, “Balance.” “Balance” was Dmillyyy’s first song of the year. The record served as a teaser for his new EP, Cupid Pack, which was released on Valentine’s Day. Cupid Pack is a five-track EP that dives into the intricacies of love. The EP is an eclectic body of work as it utilizes various genres of music, such as Alternative R&B, Melodic Rap, and Reggaeton.
Cupid Pack starts off with the song, “Thunderstruck.” The track is a record that features a wavy beat and Dmillyyy’s smooth flow. The sound is reminiscent of Jaden. The next track, “Balance,” is a fan favorite and for good reason. “Balance” has a bouncy beat that makes listeners want to groove. The record has a Drake feel to it. The catchy hook reels you in immediately. Dmillyyy cleverly sprinkles in some Spanish lyrics, which are a prelude to the third track on the EP. “Q.M. Interludio” follows “Balance.” The Latin Music interlude showcases the versatility that Dmillyyy possesses. The penultimate track, “WYGD,” is a downtempo, love song that is enchanting. The tune has a sample that blends well with the theme of the song. “WYGD” sets up the EP’s closer as “Madness” is another slow jam. “Madness” is the perfect finale. The sensual track embodies passion and love.
The EP’s introspective/extrospective take on love provides all listeners with songs that resonate with them. Although each song has its own flavor and unique sound, they still connect and carry a cohesive message. “Cupid Pack is an image painted to describe different emotions that may arise for particular love interests.” Dmillyyy continues: “Sometimes it isn’t that serious and just the feeling that you want to cherish. Sometimes the other’s existence makes you want to question everything and reflect back on your own life. Either way, both parties are living in the moment and letting that lead the way.” Cupid Pack is only the beginning as Dmillyyy has much in store for the year. While waiting for his next masterpiece, be sure to show love to the immaculate EP that is Cupid Pack.
