LA-based multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and filmmaker Holly Blair shares her latest single/video ‘Loud’, coming to terms with her neurodivergence on this texture-rich track.
“The song is really like a love letter from me to anyone else who struggles with feeling overwhelmed and overstimulated, for anyone who grieves for the world we live in and how much chaos and pain there is, neurodivergent or not. For me, the song asks the question, can it just be okay to be the way we are? I came into this world extremely sensitive and spent so long trying to hide that or fight my instincts and push through just to seem “normal.” The song marks a time in my life where I wanted to find environments and people that helped me feel safe in this world and love me regardless of my quirks. It really was a way for me to tell little Holly that it was okay to be the way I am, and let her have a voice.”
