Corrección Letra A Rising Star In The World of Pop Music par Jon Bellion

Regreso

Letra

From the small town of Napier, New Zealand, the twenty-one-year-old singer-songwriter Iris is traveling a long way.

With a barriers-breaking sound, almost impossible to restrain into a typical genre description, and a lot of grit, Iris is an active part of a new generation of artists, independent at heart.

After winning the New Zealand Peace Song Competition and performing at the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, a life-changing event, she refused to work with major record label Universal Music New Zealand, determined to start an independent career in the other side of the world: Los Angeles.

Moving from an acoustic indie sound and soon evolving into a sophisticated, empowering pop vibe, Iris has strongly evolved as an artist in just a few years.

While her first fragile and soft-spoken ballads were the portraits of her struggles as a free spirit in a small town, her latest work outlines a new happy, healthy, and empowered character. "Shedding layers" is the expression Iris uses to talk about her big transformation.

Being a young artist at heart in a very small town can be daunting. The pressure to conform to social norms and the social stigma deriving from the refusal to do so can lead the most sensitive souls to harm. On the other hand, big cities like Los Angeles can also be quite harsh and wild, causing even more damage.

Due to this pressure, still a teenager, Iris developed an eating disorder, a threat to her life she managed to overcome through the help of music.

Her latest release, "Lay with You", is the perfect example of how she managed to defeat her demons, to grow as a self-confident, unapologetic artist.

The soulful pop hit "Lay with You" follows the success of "Dangerous", one of her first releases to achieve millions of views on YouTube. A sensual anthem, "Lay with You" is a song about the good feelings deriving from loving someone we recognize as our match.

This single, together with her previously released songs, reflects the eclectic influences Iris draws inspiration from.

A fan of The Beatles and Led Zeppelin in her childhood, she later discovered the power of pop music, with artists such as Ariana Grande, Avicii, Selena Gomez, and Rihanna. All of these inspirations blend into an original and exciting pop sound.

With this strong set of talents, Iris wants to make an impact on the life of her fans. With her strong, empowering lyrics and feel-good vibes, she is determined to spread her positive message and push people to believe in themselves, as she has successfully done.

An advocate for mental health awareness and the environment, she plans to tie her dreams of "making it", selling out stadiums and working with her favourite artists, to the prospect of having a positive impact on the world and our society.
