The new single is the final release ahead of the artist’s upcoming debut album
mae krell‘s latest single ‘grown’ is a track is described as potentially the most personal from the artist’s upcoming debut album, and if you’re somebody that is familiar with her work, you’ll know that that is something of a bold statement. The artist’s sound is consistently stirring and packed full of intimate, thoughtful musings about her life and the world around her, making for a raw appeal that is often heartbreaking, rousing and deeply touching.
The new single sees the artist finding a kind of solace and comfort in the world around her, something that has not come easily to her. This sense of ease and acceptance bleeds through the work in a truly rousing and charming fashion, with the deft and vulnerable nature of the artist’s sound amplifying the earnest and honest feel of the message and giving it a real moving edge. There is an authentic, beating heart at the core of Mae’s work, and it makes these moments of openness and soul-baring feel all the more rewarding, leaving a lasting mark on you as a listener.
“‘grown’, more than anything, feels like my way of saying: I know I might be difficult sometimes, I know I might cry a little too much, I know I might have a lot more fear than the average 24 year old, but I’m me, and maybe that can be enough. If not for me, then for the wonderful and loving people that I’m so beyond lucky to be surrounded by. Maybe growing up doesn’t need to be so terrifying after all and it can instead be a path to some sort of freedom, rather than a death sentence. Maybe if I wait long enough, everything will be okay.”
