Natalie - STAR FALLING
A Houston transplant, by way of Chicago, Natalie came onto the scene in mid- 2018 with her debut EP “Shameful”. Receiving nods from publications such as Lyrical Lemonade, Earmilk, and Hilly Dilly, Natalie followed up with several genre bending singles combining pop toplines with alternative r&b production and has been featured on Spotify playlists such as New Music Friday, Fresh Finds, and Alternative R&B. After a series of shows supporting artists such as Trevor Daniel and Asian Doll, Natalie has been focused on writing and releasing singles, culminating with a follow up EP for spring of 2020. Prior to releasing under her own name, Natalie was living in Chicago producing for others. During these tumultuous years, she laments getting caught up in drugs and becoming creatively stagnant, “I was always saying I was going to release this or that, but I wasn’t dropping any music and at 23 I felt like a loser”. Relocating to Queens, Natalie continued to see those from her past affected, which is the focus of her new single “Star Falling”. She pays homage to her childhood friend whose own use resulted in a drug induced psychosis. “Growing up, the two of us were inseparable...when we reconnected in Chicago things started going downhill quickly.”, she says. “Our friendship became strained and we periodically fell in and out of contact.” At one point, “He called me two weeks before his birthday asking to crash at my crib and was in a completely removed, paranoid state”. He moved back to Houston and is sober now, but the psychosis still lingers. “Star Falling” is not a PSA but rather Natalie’s own way of processing guilt, grief, and the unintended consequences from using.
