The track is the explosive artist’s first new single since 2023’s ‘Comin’ Home’
An artist with a bold and fearless alternative rock sound and a charisma and attitude to match, Kim McClay has returned for the first time in three years with her new single ‘Velveteen Girls’, an impassioned and fiery new release that serves as an anthemic celebration of embracing who you are as a woman regardless of societies opinions.
The track has a propulsive and explosive feel to it throughout, elevating the strength of her empowering lyrics and the bite of its more scathing moments in absorbing fashion. The message of the track manages to feel both personal to the artist and her experiences while having a far-reaching and universal appeal to anybody who will have been through similar and encountered the same kinds of judgments and attitudes, and this makes for a listen that hits hard and will strike a chord with hundreds of women who feel the same way. The track feels vibrant, anthemic, catchy, defiant and vital all at once, and is a great showcase of the artist and the way that she uses her platform to uplift and embolden others.
“I have grown so tired of feeling like my value is tied up with my looks or my physical capabilities” Kim McClay says. “I want to acknowledge what a privilege it is to age. May we celebrate every wrinkle as it marks a life well-lived.”
