Holly Wild previews album "Wild" with optimistic new single, "Messy"
Filled to the brim with heart, soul, and her signature essence, Holly Wild has continued her roll in 2022 with another new single, “Messy”. Please keep reading for a closer look into the track, in addition to a background on this talented artist.
Currently representing the music scene in Sydney, Australia, Holly Wild is consistently putting together an inspired mix of indie pop that is undeniably original and fresh sounding. The song is called “Messy” and is serving as the first new track from her upcoming record called Wild. From what we can tell so far, she’s setting up the listeners for a lyrical journey through her personal experiences and we’re 100% here for it as the album continues to roll out. While we wait, we’re urging everyone to give this one a spin.
If there’s one thing that Holly Wild’s “Messy” has going on for it, is that it’s a fantastic display of vulnerability from an artist that is not afraid to get the message out there. For lack of a better describer, life is “messy”, but it shouldn’t hold you back from getting help when you need it. On the song’s background, Holly claims, “I couldn’t see my husband was stressed until there was an explosion, because he was so careful to protect us. It shouldn’t be like that, he should feel safe to fall apart when he needs to”. We could not agree more and it’s truly honest sentiments like these that not only make the song itself feel more human, but give the listener an opportunity to confide in themselves to better approach the situation.
Putting the message aside for a moment though, instrumentally speaking “Messy” is a bright and vibrant mix that channels glimmers of that mid-2000’s sound and style we adore so much. Of course Holly’s vocals are right at the forefront showing off their range, keeping a constant, and setting an optimistic tone. For her, it’s not just singing the words to be sung, rather evoking an atmosphere and emotion over the song to bring it life. Everything is generally positive sounding and even though there’s suspenseful elements in the mix, she still manages to keep you hooked until the final notes. Simply speaking, we love it, and cannot wait to hear more as Wild gets closer to its big release.
