The track provides a stark contrast to her scuzzy latest release ‘5’1′
While you can use all of the effects and arrangements in the world, sometimes just a voice and a piano can create the most stirring and powerful sounds of all, and Greta Isaac‘s latest release ‘Polyfilla’ is a rousing track that showcases how less can often be, emphatically, more.
The artist wears her heart firmly on her sleeve on the new release, cathartically opening up old wounds and pain to create a sound that feels unmistakably authentic and real. While the track feels quite specific within its narrative to the artist, the themes and memories explored will likely hit a chord with listeners coming to terms with their current situations or pasts, and Greta’s masterfully measured approach makes for a sobering and heartfelt journey.
“I think there’s a point in everyone’s lives where you realise that growing up doesn’t just mean leaving home, making advances in your career or gaining independence or even starting a family of your own. A huge part of growing up is healing the child inside of us and accepting that we’re not superhuman. We’re not indestructible. We need care and boundaries. This song is for those who might be struggling with those feelings right now and how even in an adult state, there might be a vulnerable child within us that needs looking after.”
