As she sings about moving on from bittersweet memories, you can feel the weight of her experiences pressing down on you, even as you find yourself swept up in the beauty of the music.
For anica, hoodie is a deeply personal track born out of a breakup. As she explains, she was wearing a hoodie when the relationship ended, and the piece of clothing became a painful reminder of everything she had lost. However, rather than simply wallowing in her sorrow, anica channelled her emotions into her art, crafting a song that is both deeply cathartic and universally relatable.
So whether you’re in the midst of a breakup yourself or simply looking for a song that captures the complex emotions of moving on, hoodie is sure to resonate. With its emotionally rich instrumentation and achingly raw lyrics, this is a track that will stay with you.
And if hoodie is any indication, listeners are in for a treat with anica’s new album, blue hour. It’s clear that this is just the beginning, and that blue hour is sure to offer even more of the same compelling artistry that anica is becoming known for.
