A tale old like the planet itself, ‘Maybe This Is Why’ focuses on the pivotal moment of self-doubt and painful growth we all go through, sooner or later. For American songstress Goldie Scott, that meant reckoning with her grown-up life in New York City, dealing with loneliness and the intricate dynamic of carving out a personal space in a major metropolis. Luckily for the young talent, such an experience turned out to be fertile territory for artistic expression.
‘Maybe This Is Why’ is the direct result of that process. Built on soothing yet anthemic pop stylings, the record is rather elegant in its sonic livery. Incorporating lush plucks and strings, the track then develops into a fully-fledged relatable hit, perfectly fitting the contemporary landscape it aims to dominate. Scott’s evocative and vibrant vocals are a joy to listen to, intensively expressive and meaningful.
Speaking about the inspiration behind the song, Goldie explains: “It’s a reminder that sometimes, the universe has a plan, and every struggle is a step towards finding peace. Collaborating with David Shaw (from The Revivalist) has been an incredible experience, adding an additional layer of inspiration and credibility to this powerful track.”
