German-born singer-songwriter and producer Matilda Eyre shares her beautifully delicate yet powerful indie-pop track ‘Let Me Be’. Matilda’s ethereal vocals dance across mighty guitar riffs and building soundscapes, topped with raw and emotive lyricism that is divinely thought-provoking. Matilda’s lyrics are courageously honest, revealing her innermost thoughts and insecurities, enabling her to connect with her listeners on an inspiringly personal level. Her distinctive ‘eerie electro-pop’ sound will captivate you from start to finish, and is as haunting as it is tender. The accompanying visuals for ‘Let Me Be’ are just as elegant as the track itself, showing Matilda deep in thought in each artistic shot.
Discussing her new single, Matilda said: “‘Let Me Be’ is a song about the excruciating wish to be your authentic self, to be loved the way you are, to be seen for your true self. ‘Let me be all the things washed away.’ The song is reflecting on all the ways we change ourselves to fit in and to be accepted. Remembering your strength, your essence and returning home to that. It is a call to step into your truth and authenticity when people or situations ask you to abandon yourself.”
Matilda Eyre has made the most of her free time during the pandemic, birthing many songs, videos and creative concepts, including her #100DayProject. The project consisted of small songs and self-made, mini music videos or animations released on her YouTube channel, which gained her a loyal following of fans. Matilda’s creativity never wavers, and we can’t wait to see what masterpieces she will grace our ears with in 2021.
