Soon-to-be superstar Alivia Clark makes her triumphant return following a one-year hiatus. The multifaceted talent showcases her sonic evolution through her new single, “Breathless.” “Breathless” is a culmination of genres, most notably EDM/House and Pop. The Dance-Pop, Electropop song has an R&B/Soul flair, demonstrating Alivia Clark’s versatility and immense artistry.

“Breathless” is a booming, fun feminine anthem. Alivia Clark’s sultry, seductive vocals pair well with the song’s thumping, up-tempo instrumentation. The flirtatious, sensual jam is a late-night bop that is passionate and carefree. “‘Breathless’ captures the intoxicating feeling of losing control in a moment of desire.” Alivia Clark continues, “The song lives in that space between vulnerability and power – where emotions hit harder than logic.”
