Sonia Stein‘s latest single Blooming Season marks a compelling new chapter for the Warsaw/London-based artist.

Known for her soulful vocals and introspective lyrics, Stein continues to refine her unique blend of pop, and electronic influences.

The track’s melody is immediately captivating, with a pop sensibility that doesn’t sacrifice depth.

Stein’s voice, rich and emotive, carries the song’s introspective themes with a delicate balance of strength and vulnerability.

The artist herself describes the single as “wanting to feel fully present and surrender into the moment knowing that it is magical and fleeting at the same time.”

This sentiment is palpable in both the lyrics and the production, creating a listening experience that is at once introspective and expansive.

For Blooming Season, Stein collaborated with producer Duit, who co-wrote and produced the track.

Their partnership has yielded a sound that feels both fresh, building on Stein’s established style while pushing into new territory.

The production is polished without being overly slick, allowing Stein’s vocals and the song’s emotional core to remain front and centre.

Subtle electronic elements and carefully layered instrumentals create a lush sonic landscape that complements the vocals.

As the lead single from her upcoming EP Blooming Season Part 1 (set for release on November 8th), Blooming Season sets high expectations.

The EP tracklist promises a diverse range of songs, including Clothes Off, Insatiable, and Everything At Once.

This release follows Stein’s successful world tour with DIDO and her previous EPs See Me Now and Letters, which were produced by Liam Howe (known for his work with FKA Twigs, Adele, and Jessie Ware).

Blooming Season feels like a natural progression, building on the strengths of her earlier work while showcasing a newfound confidence and artistic clarity.

It’s worth noting that Blooming Season Part 1 is just the first half of a larger project.

Stein plans to combine Part 1 and a forthcoming Part 2 into her second full-length album, slated for release on Marathon Artists in Spring 2025.

Blooming Season is a pop song with emotional complexity that is well worth your time and attention.
