Cherry Lena
Alt-pop R&B singer songwriter Cherry Lena first captured attention from audiences after appearing on The Voice Quebec in 2018. Her stunning combination of warm R&B tones mixed with subtle 1950’s jazz vocals makes her sound rich and timeless.
With an impressive number of streams on Spotify, Cherry Lena continues to win over the hearts of listeners across the globe. Her cover of Nina Simone’s “Feeling Good” in collaboration with Apashe has received more than eight million views on YouTube alone.
Toxic Woman
In new single, Toxic Woman, written in producer Jay Lavigne’s home studio, Cherry Lena explores the idea that people should not see their pain as a weakness, but rather as an opportunity to grow into an elevated version of themselves.
“This song is a sort of letter to myself” explained Cherry Lena. “I wrote it last summer, at a dark time of my life. Whenever I feel down, I have this strange sensation that I’m stuck in a web of eternal negativity. Losing my sense of time, It’s like my sadness overpowers every part of my being and I feel incapable of relating to others. Relying only on myself in these moments, this song kind of represents the interaction between myself and a past happier version of me.”
“I know you’re gone,
You always needed more, you,
‘Til I’m your ghost,
No one gets to come close to you”
Her passionate vocal energy, mixes with rising synthesisers and contagious melodies, taking her music into a realm of dreamy alternative pop, solidifying her remarkable sound and likening musical persona.
“I believe It’s only when we feel down that we really truthfully hear music’s messages. I think that applies to this song too. Anyone who’s experienced any sort of deep sorrow in their life will feel connected to this song. I’m hoping it’ll bring some sort of comfort.”
