Melanie MacLaren is a folk singer-songwriter based out of Nashville, Tennessee who caught our attention with her gorgeous single “Orion”. It follows her debut EP, which she released earlier in the year.
The track has a bit of a Phoebe Bridgers solemn ballad quality, that leans a bit more into classic Americana and alt-country arrangements. The lyrical content cuts deep with a tender and personal nature that reflects a “self-destructive desire to make up for lost time in a post-pandemic world in a way that hasn’t yet been articulated musically.”
Enjoy a listen to the lovely “Orion” now below.
