Sydney-based vocalist and producer Clare Easdown has undoubtedly been among our favourite musical discoveries over the last few years. The prolific artist unapologetically speaks her mind and isn’t afraid to get vulnerable and challenge the status quo. ‘STIGMA ENIGMA’ is another new tune Clare put out at the end of last month, and once again she proves her ability to connect with listeners on a profound level, addressing the issue of mental health with authenticity and sincerity.
A downtempo and ambient offering, ‘STIGMA ENIGMA’ urges compassion and empathy towards mental health. It calls for more love and less judgment for the millions of people who suffer daily – and does so most tenderly and humanely.
Clare’s airy and delicate vocal performance is out of this world, as she navigates the emotional landscape of the song, drawing listeners into its hauntingly beautiful atmosphere.
Having spent time in a psychiatric ward due to a flare-up of her bipolar disorder, Easdown is speaking from personal experience on the track. I urge you to take her seriously and thoughtfully, because ‘STIGMA ENIGMA’ comes from a place of deep understanding and struggle.
