Acoustic pop singer and songwriter from the UK, Mabes, releases her new EP “Keeping the Noise Down”
This refreshing new single “Keeping the Noise Down” just released May 22, 2020 from Mabes reminds us to stand in our own individuality while shedding light to social anxiety. The talented pop singer is truly a living inspiration. Her humble lyrics spread a powerful message that most of us can relate to, yet we don’t necessarily talk about, which is--- trying to be someone else is way more difficult than simply being yourself! The unique, intermittent, instrumental solos bring so much uniqueness to the vibe, alongside her soothing vocals. Definitely a song worth turning up and tuning in!
Mabes shares some powerful emotions directly from her heart behind the meaning of her new creations:
— ”I was the ‘new girl’ 3 times throughout my school years, and every time I started somewhere new I thought “this will be the time I find my real friends”.
But no matter what, other kids my age were just very different to me. I questioned who I was, what I believed in, and wondered why no one else thought as deep about things as me. I couldn’t find that place where I was comfortable, or where I belonged. My friends were shallow and I couldn’t see the good in anything. The songs in Keeping The Noise Down EP is a reflection of those times and how it was for me. Although it was a painful time, it’s actually shaped me to be a better, more understanding person in adulthood. For that, I’m glad. Now I’m on a mission to help people out there that feel like I did - ‘the new girl’, realize they’re not alone and that there’s quite a few of us that just want to keep the noise down…” —
