Artist: shy martin
Song: glued to the floor
Album: late night thoughts
Swedish singer-songwriter shy martin explains the story behind her new stark, honest new single: “glued to the floor’ was the last song written for the album. It kind of sums up how I felt for a really long time. When we first started working on the album I was in a really weird headspace. I had just started with antidepressants for the first time and it had such a huge impact on how I felt at the time so I really wanted to write about it. For years, my fans have been sharing their stories and struggles with me, creating this safe and nonjudgmental space that I’m very thankful for. It’s really special and has inspired me a lot.” Her debut album, late night thoughts, will be out on May 19!
