Innsbruck-based artist LLeow is quickly becoming a rising star with a unique sound she dubs ‘reboot rock.’ This genre-fluid sound mixes influences from 90s alternative and 80s punk with electronic pop elements and poetic lyricism, laying down anthemic hooks that strike a chord with those who seek to live authentically in the moment.
Her music serves as a call to arms for dreamers, lovers and anyone wishing to escape and break free from the mundanity of everyday life. Unveiling her unique sound earlier this year in March with her debut single “1995,” the next month saw her follow up with the sophomore track “Sacrifice.”
Both tracks clocked several thousand streams and enthusiastic responses from live audiences, radio stations and international music publications alike. Building on this momentum, LLeow has now released her third single, “The Person That I Own.” This time offering a departure from her lively indie rock sound, with her new single she showcases the tender side of her sonic output with an elegant arrangement and delicate vocal performance to craft a soulful ballad that highlights her poignant songwriting.
“The Person That I Own” explores themes of self-ownership and authenticity, posing thought-provoking questions about the nature of self-love and the authenticity of love received from others. The song’s lyrics invite listeners to reflect on their own lives, asking, “Do I really belong to myself?”
Brought in by the hushed tones of piano notes, LLeow smooth voice hover above to cast a spellbinding sound of alluring melodies carrying meaningful lyrics. Gently gathering subtle pace, the stripped-back arrangement forms an intimate setting for the artist’s timeless songwriting and compelling vocals to shine, revealing another side to her sound via an enduring composition.
Full of beautiful melodic leads and the soft swell of rising instrumentation, the calm patter of percussive elements carries a subtly building energy that reaches an anthemic finale of rich orchestral textures capped by her stunning vocals. It’s a superb showcase of LLeow’s diverse musical vision, confirming her knack for bringing to life her sound in new and unexpected ways, and we can’t wait to see what else she’s got in store for what’s sure to be her breakout year.
