The Sunshine State’s Sentimental New Single “Cliff Drive”
This multifaceted song showcases a compelling indie-rock vibe and artistic soundscapes. The captivating vocals pull you into every beautiful melody. It is the perfect song for that “cliff drive” down the coast, windows down, and sun out. In regards to the invigorating lyrics crafted by American artist Skyler Stonestreet, Skyler states-
"'Cliff Drive' is about nostalgia for me, it’s about a time in my life where I was doing almost anything and trying everything, where I felt reckless but safe in that. I was on a constant chase for something new, dangerous, as long as it was freeing. Cliff Drive is a road in Santa Barbara where I grew up, and that I’ve driven down many many times. It’s a road that looks beautiful but has come with its own tragedies. This song captures the impulsive and carefree feeling of escape."
The Sunshine State is Skyler new creation after taking time away from music while surviving breast cancer. Her experience and determination she gained from the diagnosis catapulted her creative endeavors and shines through her music. Skyler uses her platform to speak a powerful message to other women -
“[Breast cancer] doesn’t define me, but now I want to help other people who are going through it. And I want girls to know that they should feel okay in their own skin.”
