Toronto has a new talent to be proud of, and their name is V3LV. Pronounced velv, this singer and songwriter crafts melodic sounds that fuse synth with indie and alt-pop.
New single ‘NERVE’ was inspired feelings of unrequited love, and presents listeners with a sound that somehow feels both melancholic and energising in equal measures. On the lyrics, V3LV explains:
“So, this song is about dealing with the reality of someone not being able to be in a relationship with you even though you’re infatuated with them. You guys are still a ‘thing’, but not quite as you imagined. The story follows along the relationship, how crude it was, and how it played out.”
Despite only releasing a handful of singles, the musician has already amassed thousands of streams online. We think this artist has a ton of potential, so be sure to keep them on your radars!
