OLIVIA REES IS BACK WITH A NEW SINGLE 'GEMINI'

 

 

Olivia Rees is among the voices featured most prominently in our Spotify playlists over the past couple of years. Ever since her stunning debut, the album “Exposed”, came out, we’ve kept an eye on this talented young woman. 

At only 24 years old, Rees has already made an important impact on the indie music scene, with hugely successful tracks like “Fast When I’m Furious” and “It’s Over”. From the onset, her music has stood out through its uniquely charming, versatile vocal range, and through the tasteful musical arrangement that dabbles charmingly between assertive and soft. 

Now, through the release of her latest hit single, “Gemini”, Rees cements her position as one of the most promising young voices on the music scene of 2022. Inspired by the artist’s own star sign, the track discusses the tantalizing and marked dual personality of Gemini types. True to the sign itself, many believe that Geminis don’t only host one type of personality, but two deeply distinctive ones, and that that’s no coincidence. While everyone, regardless of star sign, will experience changes and volatility in personality from time to time, it’s thought that Geminis are the most inclined to do so. And Rees’s “Gemini” definitely supports that idea. 

A very tasteful and intoxicating track, “Gemini” offers us a glimpse into the artist’s private life and her own range of experiences and emotions. As such, “Gemini” really makes one feel close to Rees, and lets her transcend from a mere name in a playlist to so much more. Through “Gemini” as through so much of her music, Rees is relatable, and likable. She becomes human, and is made real by her own flaws, desires, and feelings. 

Listening to “Gemini” is not like pressing Play on some random track. It’s like talking to a friend, when you’re down, and letting them bring you up, and arrange your crown on your head. It’s an extraordinarily invigorating experience, one that we can’t get enough of.
