FRIDAY, SINGAPORE – Israeli singer-songwriter VANNA has finally dropped ‘Voices,’ the third single from her debut EP ‘High Hopes’ via Singapore based indie label Umami Records.
Made more vulnerable with captivating vocals, the song is about VANNA’s experience in overcoming the voices and troubles inside her head.
VANNA shares the story behind the latest track: “I wrote this song about myself emerging from a period of a troubled inner world. Insomnia, anxiety can be really exhausting, but every episode, rough as it will be, will end.”
Born and raised in Tel Aviv, of Indian and Iranian parents, VANNA grew up immersed in music, culture, and diversity. Over the last 3 years, VANNA has been working closely with producer Roy Avital on her debut EP High Hopes, delivering a delicate fusion of indie electronic, pop, and folk-influenced by artists like RY X, Oscar and the Wolf, SYML, and Sóley.
“Let Me Fall showcases a beautiful performance filled with passionate songwriting and energy so fun you’ll be humming and singing along in no time” – Keep Walking Music
“Let Me Fall is perfect for television. I’m fairly certain that people would absolutely fall in love with this tune if they heard it.” – The Sound Sniffer
“High Hopes made me stop in my tracks, turn off the lights, and turn on fairy lights around my room. That is the physical response an indie-electro song should have.” – Unheard Gems
“High Hopes is such a beautiful arrangement. The production and build in this track is powerful, over subtle guitar picking and entwined with subtle synth voices and strings piercing through. The track builds and transforms as VANNA takes you on a journey, exploring the depths of hope even amidst struggle.
