Avery Lynch, rising singer-songwriter, shares a new soul-stirring single, “Rain,” released today through RECORDS. Avery is known for profoundly personal lyricism and intimate storytelling, and O is another gut-punch of raw emotion, wrapped in cinematic production and hauntingly beautiful melody.
“Rain” is like walking into a memory. Fragile strings and a soft piano create a setting for the effortlessly poignant Avery to lay out the weight of heartache and yearning. As the track builds, layers of rich instrumentation swell around her, reflecting the waves of emotions she deftly conveys. I’m unsure how to describe how it sounds, except that it’s melancholy and powerful and stays with you long after the last note has faded.
“I wrote ‘Rain’ after a point when my boyfriend and I were broken up, and it happened that someone else asked me on a date,” says Avery. “It describes everything I was going through where I was, what I was feeling, what I wanted. It means so much to me, and it’s cool to see how much it resonates with others.”
That resonance is precisely what makes Avery Lynch such a star.” Her knack for turning personal moments into universal ballads has quickly made her a force to be reckoned with in the singer-songwriter space. After the release of As Written, Vol. 2, “Rain” is a bold step forward both sonically and emotionally.
