The story of Rosie Carney is not common. Indeed, the artist already had an unfortunate stint on a major label and has experienced depression and anorexia half her life. It’s probably through those difficult moments that she had gained such an artistic and emotional maturity.

Following up to “Awake Me“, Rosie Carney‘s new single “Your Moon” is another sublime folk track that comes with something going further than the music itself.

In Rosie Carney‘s words:

[su_quote]Your Moon is a song written about realizing different truths within yourself or within a relationship, and finding meaning in that truth. I wanted to capture the feeling of realizing that, even though at times the circumstances and timing may seem right in things, doesn’t necessarily mean that it is what’s truly best for you. We spend a lot of time doing things for other people in life, focusing on what’s best for someone else, and trying to please people. But sometimes we have to realise what’s truly best for ourselves and what would be more beneficial in the bigger picture. It’s about being selfish in the best possible way, and not being afraid to put yourself first.[/su_quote]

Rosie Carney is knocking on the doors of adulthood but despite her young age, she has experienced a lot of steps and her maturity can definetely be heard in her new single “Awake Me”. On a delicate and aerial folk instrumental made of beautiful plucked arpeggio, the artist implicitly and poetically sings about the fact that she had to overcome depression and anorexia half of her young life.

“Awake Me” could also be interpreted as a cry for help and support. As awareness about mental health, eating disorders, or even burn-outs have now gained much more attention than in the past, Rosie appears as an artist who humbly wants to share her own experience to help the others. You can notably read a poignant post she wrote on her personal blog and where she details what she has lived so far and how she is becoming the person she always wanted to be.
