Blurry Paige is living in the moment (for better or worse) on her revealing new single and stop-motion lyric video Right Here — showcasing today on Tinnitist.
A track about the anxiety-provoking nature of being a performer, Right Here was written by Billy Walker, J. Sabin and Paige, with piano by Ben Fischer. The song explains how it feels to have such a deep love for entertainment, but how scary it can sometimes be to get up on a stage in front of an audience. The vocal-focused first verse allows the listener to hear the lyrics of the song prominently before the electric guitar and drums are layered in, creating an overall immersive experience. As Blurry sings:
“Wake up my soul feels undeniable
I’m so alive today
Inside me somewhere there’s an animal
Waiting to break these chains
Stomach in knots but there ain’t nothin’ wrong
It burns like a quiet rage
My heart is racing like I’m on the edge
And I’m ready.”
Expressing the anticipation before going on stage, and the rush of adrenaline once the set begins, Right Here touches on a feeling that many artists may not talk about, but is something that they all encounter at some point in their careers.
“Right Here is about stage fright and what it means to overcome it,” Blurry explains. “You know when you can feel your heartbeat in your ears? You’re not in danger, but your body thinks you are. For me, it’s easier to go through that than to not play music anymore. That’s what this song is about.”
Hailing from San Antonio, Paige is a multifaceted singer, instrumentalist, and producer combining emotional vocals and passionate lyrics to create unique and relatable tracks for her audience. She first found music as a young girl, using it as an escape from her struggles with depression, anxiety, and self-doubt. Music quickly became a passion, and she began songwriting, telling stories about the struggles she faced in her life.
Her philanthropic soul has pushed her to collaborate with several different charities, and she currently sits on the board of the Texas Music Project, an organization that helps families in need through music. Paige’s musical journey is a testament to the transformative power of music and the beauty that can be found through introspection and deep emotion.
