Kayla Williams – “Come Close”
Based in Calgary, this award-winning Canadian singer and songwriter has been offering a modern take on the retro-touched genre yacht pop. Since bursting onto the scene, she’s been commissioned to write a song for the 2019 Canada Winter Games and won the Red Deer Emerging Artist award in 2021. Inspired by The Doobie Brothers, Toto and Steely Dan, she debuted with “One More Dose” in 2017.
Singing about the rush of emotions that flood your senses when someone you’re into comes close, her new single is brimming with feel-good retro vibes. Taken from her upcoming debut EP “Retrodelia”, she pays a sonic tribute to the glittery 70s. With a funky bass and blazing brass, she blends funk, soul and pop into a delectable gem. And with her rich, vibrant vocals, this is an infectious groove.

Creating an album encapsulating the homesickness that follows when moving abroad for work of study, this track highlights the pressure of having to fake happiness. Taken from her album “Faking It”, released today, she starts off with a driving beat and her intoxicating voice. Ascending to a vivacious second part, with fiery drums and zesty guitars, this title-track is an exhilarating sonic journey.
