In The Spotlight

Rosie Darling – “This Is Me Letting You Go”

Originally from Boston and now based in Los Angeles, this singer and songwriter grew up around music. She sang a lot in school, learned to play the guitar from her dad and taught herself to play piano. Although she began to write songs as a teenager, it wasn’t until she moved to L.A. that she got serious about a career. She lent her voice to EDM acts like OKO and Tritonal and toured with Katelyn Tarver. Inspired by Taylor Swift and Gracie Abrams, she debuted solo on her EP “Coping” in 2021.

Lyrically guiding us through the pitfalls of a breakup and finding a way to make peace with it, her new single shows there’s a light at the end of the heartbreak. Creating an inviting warmth with the soft melody, the song shows both an embracing vulnerability as an empowering strength to face the future. With a mellow acoustic guitar and a laidback rhythm guiding her words along, it’s her silky, emotion-filled vocals leading to an anthemic climax that makes this an enticing gem.

Mia Wray – “Nice To Meet Me”

Born in Sunrise Beach and based in Melbourne, this Australian singer and songwriter started learning to play the piano aged 11. In later years she learned to play the guitar through video’s on YouTube. She also plays the harmonica and foot drum. Since starting her career she’s played various festivals like the Tamworth Country Music Festival and opened for Maisie Peters on tour. Inspired by The Beatles, Bob Dylan and Gabrielle Aplin, she released her debut single “Work For Me” in 2020.

Singing about ending a long term relationship and the process of finding yourself again after, her new single combines relatable lyrics with a rock-pop vibe. Taken from her upcoming album “Hi, Nice To Meet Me”, expected on 14 March 2025, the song starts with a harmonious acapella, followed by a weighty beat and a beefy bass. The soaring chorus adds a delicious energy with lively guitars and bustling drums. And with her towering vocals, this is a tasty piece of rock-pop candy.
