In the ever-evolving world of music, where new voices rise and seasoned artists reinvent themselves, a single song can become a touchstone for emotional connection and creative momentum. For me, that song has been Teardrops. The journey of releasing it has been nothing short of transformative—and I owe a massive thanks to Spotify for being an integral part of that journey.
Every artist has that one track that feels different. Teardrops was born out of vulnerability, hope, and the kind of catharsis that can only come from putting pen to paper in your loneliest moments. It was written during a time of personal reflection—navigating relationships, change, and that bittersweet ache of growth. From its haunting melodies to the layered production, Teardrops represents a deeply emotional chapter for me, and I knew from the start that I wanted it to connect with listeners on an intimate level.
What I didn’t expect was just how far and wide it would resonate.
The role Spotify has played in amplifying Teardrops cannot be overstated. From playlist placements to editorial features, the platform has been instrumental in reaching new audiences and reintroducing me to longtime fans under a fresh light.
Being added to some of the most prominent curated playlists gave the song a visibility I’m immensely grateful for. Whether people were discovering Teardrops during a late-night drive, a morning run, or a moment of quiet introspection, the feedback I’ve received has been overwhelming in the best way.
Spotify’s Artist team also showed incredible support by featuring me in artist spotlights and promoting the track through their global networks. It’s rare to feel so seen in this industry, but Spotify made sure Teardrops had the space it deserved.
other highlight of this release has been getting the chance to connect with fans in person. The London and NYC visits were two unforgettable stops in this chapter of musicmTeardrops. There’s something truly special about sharing space with the people who’ve streamed, shared, and sung along to the song. Meeting fans face-to-face, hearing their stories, and feeling the energy in those cities reminded me why I started making music in the first place.
In London, the crowd felt like home—intimate, electric, full of warmth. In New York, In London, the crowd felt like home—intimate, electric, full of warmth. In New York,it was pure adrenaline. Each show brought new meaning to the lyrics I’d lived with for so long. And for those who came out to see me, know this: your presence mattered more than you’ll ever know.
Music is a journey, not a destination, and Teardrops has been a pivotal part of mine. I’m so excited for what’s next—more shows, more writing, and more moments of connection.
To everyone who’s listened, streamed, messaged, or showed up: thank you from the bottom of my heart. And to Spotify—thank you for believing in this song and helping it find its wings.
Let’s keep the momentum going. This is just the beginning.
