This is a new song from a 19 year old artist from Melbourne, Australia who contacted me with this submission. Reminder – if you know any new music from up-and-coming artists, please email me as I’d love to share it with the community!
Lara was classically trained on the piano from the age of 8, and plays music in the R&B/soul, funk, disco, contemporary and electronic genres. Here’s a word from Lara herself:
“Drifting was written after I had to return to Melbourne from studying at Berklee in Boston due to Covid. I would go surfing a lot in the first lockdown and felt that the waves reminded me how temporary things can be, changing without notice or warning. This is why Drifting has a drone of waves in the background of the whole song. Another fun fact is that apart from surfing I also am a pole dancer!”
