Watch SHY Martin's music video for "Remember you were the one" here

Listen to this song in our official Spotify playlist: 

‘Discovering The Undiscovered’

WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY:

SHY Martin is an artist we’ve covered the most since launching the Gems & Secrets platform. From penning some of our favorite songs within the last decade while simultaneously collecting billions of streams from listeners all around the world, it would seem the artist would eventually start to fill the pressure—and while we’re not suggesting the musician doesn’t feel any pressure within her creative process—one thing is for sure… SHY Martin continues to hold a level of quality and integrity within her work that never loses its magic.

“I feel like I‘ve become better at respecting myself and my energy during the last year, I’ve learnt to move away from situations and people that don't make me happy. I’ve never been good at letting relationships go and as a songwriter I’ve always gone back to old relationships trying to figure out why they went wrong or if I could have done something differently to change the outcome. This song is the first one I’ve written about accepting it for what it is instead of dwelling on the past” — SHY Martin

With her latest, titled “Remember you were the one”, SHY Martin hits a darker tone than what we’ve heard in recent past. It’s eccentric and bold and we love the direction and energy SHY Martin delivers throughout her performance. Accompanying the new single is a DIY lyric music video that blends screenshots and film photos together to create a lifestyle look of the artist, and we gotta say, we love how it came out.

WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY:

18-year-old newcomer Hunter Moreau shines with her new single 'Hazy'. Boasting glistening synths and delicate vocals, the track features production by Doug Schadt who’s writing credits boast artists like Maggie Rogers, Ashe, and SHAED.

"As simple as it may sound, 'Hazy' is about the pure bliss of summer nights,” shares Moreau, "The excitement of not caring how exactly you’re going to get home, or where you even are, but just knowing that you want whatever feeling this is to last forever."

The new song boasts delicate vocal lines and gentle guitar licks with a tight, calming flow from beginning and to end. And while the song grabs us from the start and holds us over until the very end.
