Olivia Cox drops brand new single “Paris”

Olivia Cox Canadian-born singer-songwriter making a significant impact in the pop music scene with her ability to blend alternative pop vibes with mainstream appeal. Following a breakout year in 2024, which saw her deliver a string of hit singles including “23,” “Around You,” “Miss Me,” “UPGRADE” and “Stupid Love,” Olivia has firmly established herself as a rising sensation in independent music.

Now, she kicks off 2025 with “Paris,” a brand new track that sees her continue to develop her original sound. The single was born out of pure creative freedom; initially not intended for release, the track emerged during a studio session where Olivia was struck by the uniqueness of the beat. “I fell in love with it as soon as my producer played it to me, and I knew I needed to do it justice,” she shares. “It’s so cool and unique, unlike anything I’d ever written before. With Paris being such a new sound for me, I felt free to experiment and truly have fun while writing and recording it.”

That sense of artistic liberation is stitched into every layer of “Paris,” from its playful lyricism to its immersive production. The track transports listeners into a rollercoaster ride of emotions, capturing the thrill and uncertainty of infatuation.

Olivia credits her producers, Aaron Brennan and Daniel Seacroft, for encouraging her to release it, recognising its potential, “It wasn’t until the guys told me that it was too good not to release as a single that I even considered it. I’m so glad they did because it’s such a new sound from me, and I truly believe my fans will love it. It’s definitely my favorite song I’ve written so far.”

Influenced by Camila Cabello’s “C,XOXO (Magic City Edition)” and Addison Rae’s summer anthem “Diet Pepsi,” Olivia was inspired to craft a song that feels both intimate and cinematic. “I was loving the way they used adlibs and layers to add character to their songs. I wanted to capture that same magic—something fun and immersive that takes listeners into another world for two minutes, like reading a page straight from my diary.”

Thematically, the track progresses like a fast-paced daydream, with Olivia painting a vivid picture of a girl caught in the rush of infatuation. “There are so many little avenues and parts of the song that take you on this visual ride of a girl with a crush,” she explains. That storytelling, coupled with Olivia’s distinct ability to blend emotion with infectious melodic writing makes “Paris” an instantly catchy hit full of grooving rhythm, slick bass textures and bright vocal performance. Showing no signs of slowing down in 2025, Olivia Cox hits the ground running with a stunning alternative pop jam that’s danceable and invigorating, memorable and original throughout.
