FINLAY – TIDES

New chill-pop artist, FINLAY, has just released her song “TIDES” along with her debut music video! Incredibly vibey, this song moves with sparse production and beautifully airy vocals. The songwriting is strong, vulnerable, and move with an powerful rhythm that itself feels like an everflowing wave.

After surviving a brutal shark attack in 2012, FINLAY has been creating her own brand of mellow pop, incorporating her love for the ocean in her unique style. This new release, “TIDES”, is an impressive single from FINLAY and I can’t wait to hear what comes next!

In her words:
“On the day I was discharged, the doctors lovingly pulled me aside and remarked, ‘This is the fastest we’ve ever seen a shark attack victim heal in this history of this hospital. You must be set aside for something special.’ While I was lying on the beach in shock after the attack, my vision for my life as a performer began to wash away in hopelessness when I realized the end could be near for me at just twenty-one. I feared resenting the ocean forever, too, and being afraid of ever going back in again. In that moment, I made a commitment that, if I survived, my life would become a brand new wave in pop music devoted to showing fearlessness and a little magic to my fans and friends, and that’s exactly what I hope fans hear in this track; all of me… As a shark attack survivor and artist, I feel like I was given a radically unique gift to step back into the unknown waters of life in spite of personal fear(s), and my scar is a daily reminder of the second chance to pursue the fullness of life.” -FINLAY
