Bea Elmy Martin, the London-based artist, just dropped "Anouk" – and wow, it’s deeply personal. This one’s about her best friend from university days, chronicling how their bond has evolved over time.
"While recording it, we were living on opposite sides of London, which was challenging at times, but we made it work," she explains. That physical distance? It’s all over the track, but so is the unwavering loyalty.
The sound itself feels like a warm hug – gentle acoustic foundations with these subtle electronic flourishes weaving through. Bea’s voice floats effortlessly, soft yet crystal clear, carrying every emotion.
There’s even a voice note from her friend embedded in the song. Talk about authentic! It gives listeners this intimate peek into the relationship that sparked the whole thing.
"Anouk" is part of her upcoming Under The Yew (Vol. 2), where she’s diving headfirst into transforming real relationships into music. It’s fascinating, really – how she takes these personal connections and makes them universally relatable.
