Amy Rage Announces Her Debut EP "Solitude" and Shares Lead Single "Doin It Right"
NYC-based, indie pop artist Amy Rage was born from an existential crisis in January 2020. All she ever wanted was to make music influenced by the classic pop and R&B legends who never cease to inspire her, like Madonna, Whitney Houston, Prince, Robyn, and Mariah Carey. But like so many thirty-somethings, she was feeling lost in the world and stuck in the 9-5 rut. Then one day, she hooked up a small MIDI keyboard, plugged in her mic, and taught herself how to produce her own breed of fun and feminine pop that celebrates her favorite music from the 80s and 90s, when it was all about big beats, lush vocals and catchy, emotional hooks.
Amy Rage shares her new single "Doin' It Right", the lead single off her debut EP “Solitude”, due out June 26th. With hammering synths backing her vocals, Amy sings about how having the right person by your side can lessen the world's constant insanity and chaos. "Doin' It Right" is a glitzy, pop anthem heavily inspired by Robyn -- the entire EP is a nod to beloved mainstream pop legends and bops, but is rooted in Rage's DIY ethos and creative process. Rage successfully taps into the energy that these icons exude, putting her own personal spin on these sounds and styles having self-produced and recorded the 3-track release entirely in her home studio.
The “Solitude” EP is the result of many endless days she spent locked in her guest room in Jersey City while feverishly learning how to put music to her voice, lyrics, and melodies. Amy Rage became her alter ego and now the songs are pouring out of her.
