Madison Beer shares her new single ‘Stained Glass’. The first to be shared from her highly anticipated debut album, it is a bold and striking account for mental health.

Showcasing her classy vocal in all its glory, ‘Stained Glass’ is an immediate and emotive outing that would not be out of place if sung by Ariana Grande. Underpinned by deft percussion and propelled forth by sombre keys and meandering guitar lines, Beer’s vocal smoothly and matter-of-factly recounts a time where she was vulnerable.

“I wrote Stained Glass at a time where I was really struggling mentally,” shares Beer of what inspired her to create the single. “This song was my message, not only to the public, but to those around me, to be more gentle on people and not judge them so hard, because you never know what someone’s been through.

“People sometimes assume that I’m ok, when I’m not; people don’t really see the parts of me that are the ugly, sad or depressed, they only see the sides they want to see, or the sides I feel comfortable to show because of the scrutiny that I’ve been under in my life,” she continues, “The stones lyric in the chorus refers to the traditional metaphor for people’s words and the lyric saying ‘I just might break’ is where I have finally shown my vulnerability in its absolute form.”

‘Stained Glass’ is available now via Epic Records.
