Singer, songwriter and producer Maeve is sure to capture your attention with her icy latest "Martyr."
The 21-year-old Caymanian artist is creating dark tinged pop music that simultaneously pulls at the heart strings while making you want to get up and move your body.
Inspired by the betrayals featured in the story of Samson & Delilah, "Martyr" is a sparse yet impacting piece of synth-pop with Maeve's dynamic vocals the true star. Speaking on the track Maeve explains:
A lifestyle of chasing quick highs had so much power over me that it was self destructive and it was almost like I was dying for it. I wanted to play with powerful ideas like love, religion and money. Things that people get sucked into and usually it’s when they think they have the most power that these things actually have the power over them.
These quick highs are intoxicating but when it’s over we always need something to pick us back up - so the cyclicality continues. We start craving more and more. This song is about being stuck in that dangerous cycle.
