In The Spotlight

Brielle Kaga – “Thinking About You”

Hailing from Singapore, this rising singer and songwriter took classical piano lessons as a child. At 13 she taught herself to play the guitar and wrote her first song. Continuing to hone her songwriting skills, she started filming herself singing her songs and upload them to YouTube. An exchange program in the US introduced her to electronic music, elements of which are still found in her songs. Inspired by Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift and Gryffin, she debuted with “Friends” in 2020.

Capturing a longing for a past life and romance, her new single takes a lyrical step into the feelings of pure nostalgia. The title track of her recently released EP, the song feels like a warm, comforting blanket in the cold of winter. Guided by a mellow acoustic guitar, she picks up a retro-touched rhythm and shimmering synths along the way. Finding a way to merge a soft indie-pop ballad with electronic hints, it’s her alluring vocals that take you by the hand into her sentimental world.
