We’ve got a very exciting artist from Chicago to introduce you to today, going by the name of Abigail Arkley.
This hugely promising starlet beautifully creates complex soundscapes through electronic productions that also incorporate elements of indie and pop.
The new single ‘Never Too Young’ is a prime example of the rising 24-year-old’s style of work and treats us to a dreamy and emotive track that looks at concepts of self-doubt and resilience.
“I wrote this in a time of deep searching for meaning and purpose, desperate to break away from both societal and personal constraints and expectations. In your youth especially, the desire for a space where you can exist authentically is paramount. The chorus uncovers doubts about my resilience while acknowledging my eagerness to evolve and face the unknown without hesitation, despite the uncertainties about my worth or purpose. The final theme, expressed in my second verse, is searching for something beyond the visible world—a deeper truth or spiritual awakening. Ultimately, ‘Never Too Young’ captures a journey of self-exploration, a desire for renewal, and a confrontation with one’s inner self.”
‘Never Too Young’ is lifted from Abigail’s forthcoming EP, which is out soon, along with some accompanying visuals. Keep an eye out!
