Independent artist Matt Wright is making a comeback with a summer banger called Falling which is basically a perfect dance pop anthem with some tropical house vibes thrown in too!
The song is out today, and the lyrics are all about falling head over heels for someone and how sometimes, it can feel like you’ve known them for a lifetime. It explores how those feelings can take hold of us and make us act by completely consuming us, especially at the beginning of a new relationship.
Like several of his other songs, Falling has also been previously featured as BBC Introducing’s Track of the Day across both BBC Radio Sussex and BBC Radio Surrey. The music video for the song was filmed by his real-life partner with the help of their 4-year-old daughter, whilst on a family holiday to Kos, Greece. It was then cleverly edited together with 3 different panels to create an interesting mix of performance shots from around the island of Kos, that really suit the summer vibes of the track itself.
The video was inspired by the music video for NOTD’s Hold On Me. The single also features an Owl City-style B-Side called Paper Dreams that showcases a very different, almost nonsensical fun side to Matt’s usual, deeply personal lyricism.
His latest single Heartbreaker (which I reviewed back in January) was his most successful release to date, with the music video featuring Ollie King from BBC Three’s I Kissed A Boy, as hosted by Dannii Minogue. His hopes are that Falling outperforms Heartbreaker so stream to support independent artists! Plus it’s a bop.
