Rising pop-punk artist SAIAH builds from lo-fi to an explosive crescendo on their deceptively mellow new single, “My mistakes as run on sentences.” An ode to rejection and remorse, the observe begins with acoustic guitar and fowl track earlier than plunging right into a bass- and synth-heavy refrain.
SAIAH initially got here to music from athletics. Their mom was a 1988 Olympian, and so they earned 10 school scholarship presents for observe and discipline. Today, nevertheless, SAIAH’s coronary heart is with music. Their objective is to create “something that can let you see that you can be unapologetically Black, Non-Binary, or unique in some way with no label and not only live, but thrive within yourself.”
“My mistakes as run-on sentences” proves that thriving is just not all the time simple. “You called my foul / and I’m drowning in all my mistakes,” SAIAH laments. “Got me moved by a mile / and you called me out/ and all that you said was you’re fake.”
“My mistakes” feels nearly like a tragic followup to “radio.fm,” the peppy, summer season love track SAIAH launched final month. Though simply as upbeat, “My mistakes” overlays a lot darker lyrics. SAIAH’s mission of utilizing pop punk “to truly embrace emotion,” shines by means of.
“My mistakes” is SAIAH’s third single out this yr. They will play their first competition, Nothing Fest IV, in Garden Grove, Calif., subsequent month.
