North West London-based German-born singer-songwriter and producer Ella Eliza garnered massive praise for her self-produced debut EP INTROSPECTION. This led to a sold-out headline show Notting Hill Arts Club amongst other high profile shows. Now, she is back with her new single "The Art of Letting Go" which serves as the first single from her upcoming EP. The vibrant guitar-driven pop ballad deals with the delicate issue of mental health but in her own unique way. Instead of making it gloomy and sad, she opts for a fun and upbeat motif without losing the plot. She takes us through the ups and downs of dealing with anxiety and shows us her various coping mechanisms with lines like "It takes losing it all to get out of your head, But nothing feels better /Than when you find out what you need to grow/To learn the art of letting go". Over the vibrant groove and rich guitar arrangement, she delivers quite an uplifting message but in the same breath, she reasserts herself with lines like Try to centre myself knowing nothing around me is real/ A reminder of when it gets dark I decide how I feel/ Too much time to myself and I’ve fallen back in again/ Only this time the doubts and the pain and the fears/ Don’t define who I am in the end". In her own words, she concludes by showing us that anxiety is normal and instead of fighting it to go away it is much more manageable when accepted and embraced.
