Donate to support families affected by the crisis in Ukraine ➔ Holander Premieres New Song “Something Real” on SoundCloud
Los Angeles-based electro-pop singer-songwriter Carly Harpur Hollander, aka Holander has delivered a new song “Something Real” via SoundCloud. The song was premiered exclusively on CelebMix.
The song is the follow-up "Satellite", which garnered over 16,500 streams in just a few short months on Spotify.
Back in January, she performed the song live for the first time at The Moon & Tide in Los Angeles.
Also she will perform the song at L.A’s “Women Fuck Shit Up Fest”, a female-fronted festival in support of L.A’s Center for Law and Justice, on February 24th.
About the new song, she told CeleMix;
"College kids. Frat parties. People getting wasted out of their minds. I wanted to explore what they are really thinking. What they are really doing. Why they are doing it. I think we all are constantly trying to fill a void and find our purpose in life, and I think manufactured highs are a big part of that search for my generation. We’re all trying to feel alive.
It’s funny because I wrote this song while I was still with my long-term ex, but its taken on a whole new meaning since we broke up. It’s become my breakup anthem. I was so hurt that I was doing anything and everything to distract myself and feel good. This song has grown with me and had multiple meanings for me, and I hope everyone hears the song in their own way. I think everyone their own journey trying to feel something real.
Lyrics and melody! It’s meant to be a playful song with a real message. I definitely love writing serious lyrics with upbeat melodies. It’s like, you’re dancing, and then you’re like, oh shoot, that’s deep!"- source : CelebMix
