LA-based indie folk-pop artist Riley Polanski captures the quiet devastation of inevitable endings on "Sad Again," a cinematic sonic showcase rooted in aching guitar lines and poignant lyricism. Inviting us to find acceptance and catharsis in endings rather than feeling discomforted, the track is unflinching in its honesty yet laden with upliftment.
Serving heartache and a soothing balm to the pain all at once, the intimate anthem is a powerful reminder that while pain cycles back, so too does healing. Built on Polanski's ability to balance emotional urgency with atmospheric soundscapes, the track hones in on deeply personal experiences with a sweeping relatability as it sways between comfort and confession.
Having built a reputation for their shimmering blend of textured soundscapes and haunting storytelling spanning queerness, sobriety, and the tender complexities of human connection, Polanski continues to cement their status as a compelling emerging voice worth keeping on your radar.
With "Sad Again," serving as a tender glimpse of their highly anticipated EP Thought I’d Learn By Now, this promising act is all set to deliver their most vulnerable yet hopeful work to date.
