Madison Olds – If You Wanna
Born in a musical family, Canadian singer-songwriter Madison Olds has been playing music for as long as she can remember. In her songs, she addresses topics such as anxiety, loneliness, and โmental disparityโ with lighthearted music to back her vocals.
In an interview with Beyond The Stage magazine Olds explains: โIf I had to describe my music (โฆ) I would say itโs gritty alt-pop thatโs drawn from lots of personal experience. Iโm a pretty happy person as well, so I like to keep the mood relatively light and happy.โ
2020 was challenging, but yet, the upcoming artist managed to put out an impressive six singles throughout the year. They are compiled on the new EP Drowning In My Thoughts. It also holds a new track: the bouncing tune If You Wanna. A great pop song with hands clapping and fingers snapping. Meanwhile a thumping bass and loud drum fills provide a fun groove.
Olds cites Julia Michaels, Ed Sheeran and Billie Eilish as her main influences. In my ears, her single If You Wanna is just as accessible and radio-friendly as those artistsโ output.
