Kelsey – Cold Rain (Spotify)
Kelsey's debut single, Cold Rain, is a pop soul anthem about making things work in a relationship when things get hard. Cold Rain as an element is used to symbolize tough times. In Cold Rain, Kelsey describes the frustration of a new relationship. She asks herself whether love will last as life gets harder. The song builds dynamically from the initial storytelling of a relationship in the verses turned to a cry of desperation by the final chorus. Cold Rain is rhythmic yet simple with distant claps, deep drums and ambient piano driving the energy.
