Bayleigh Cheek is excited to share “Release Me” via Red Zeppelin Records with you. This song is about what it means to realize you’ve believed a lie, or false identity of yourself, and the process of becoming free from it and knowing the truth. Growing up listening to a range of genres, from psychedelic and folk to progressive rock and new wave, “Release Me” opened her eyes to the world of synths and everything electronics can provide to create a whole new universe of sound. Taking something seemingly fun and cheerful on the outside, and revealing something deeper on the inside.
Before she started writing her upcoming debut album, she decided to be more vulnerable, honest and raw. She hid behind surrealism, which is still a big part of her art and always will be, but in light of the pandemic, she felt she needed to really let myself be open and not hide anymore. She’s becoming the person she always wanted to become, and art will always be there as gentle reminders.
