The 17-year-old singer-songwriter could have a big future ahead of her.
On her debut single ‘Penny’, Sounds Like Lily has immediately forced her way into the conversation of exciting, emerging British neo-soul artists.
Her textured voice effortlessly and emphatically dominates the space on her debut single, bringing a composed sense of power and poise that belies her status as an artist just 17-years-old on her first release. The track champions the power of being able to choose to walk away from situations and people that don’t benefit you, and the authority and self-assured nature of the sound really hammers home this point and provides it with a real empowering edge. ‘Penny’ is an incredible debut release that truly sets the artist up as someone with a potentially big future, we can’t wait to hear what she does next.
Lily elaborates: “Although I really wanted it to be from a woman’s perspective. I didn’t want this to be a typical girl-power song – it’s much more about reciprocity and being able to walk away when someone doesn’t deserve your time. When the back and forth isn’t right, you can just get up and go.”
