As we get ready to say goodbye to 2023 and welcome the new year with hope and positivity, Nashville Kill Rock Stars recording artist Lovetta (the alter-ego of Taylor Dupuis of Roanoke) will release her stunning cover of the timeless classic “Auld Lang Syne”, coupled with recent single “Gravity” (acoustic version) on today.
Lovetta states,“I thought it was a beautiful sentiment. It felt different than most holiday songs, and honoring the past but welcoming change and growth is something I’m always striving for.”
Accompanying this new holiday song, which is Lovetta’s first cover, is an acoustic version of her single “Gravity” which also represents an era of growth for the singer. “Writing that song was a moment of shedding and saying goodbye to myold life and patterns. I love the original, and it’s such a beautiful thing to be able to strip down a song to its original form.”
Getting to know Lovetta
Meet Lovetta, the alter-ego of Roanoke’s Taylor Dupuis. Her brand of indie pop music is emotive and opulent, decorated by tenderly raw, relatable lyrics and topped with feminine empowerment. While it’s perhaps a stereotypical Midwesterner trait but Lovetta, who hails from Michigan, writes earnestly and with little restraint. With Lovetta, Taylor feels the freedom to confront her emotions and experience catharsis within her songwriting. She braves the exploration of themes of love (positive and negative — with everything in-between), empowerment, and self-discovery with an untamed and authentic approach. Her resilience shines through in her music and is reinforced with honest lyrics. Wearing her wild heart on her sleeve, she aims to encourage others to permit themselves to live —really live — as authentically and romantically as her music reveals her life experiences to be.
