Pop Songstress Olivia Lunny Releases Dreamy Single “City of Angels”
Olivia Lunny, rising pop star who wrapped up a tour with Ellie Goulding last year, released her latest single, “City of Angels” on Nov. 15.
“City of Angels” is an upbeat track that Lunny had been teasing on Instagram for months prior to its release.
“I’m so excited about this song,” Lunny said. “It’s more than a single. It marks the beginning of a new era of music.”
This single will be part of Lunny’s sophomore album, set to be released next year. She’ll also be starting a new tour in 2025.
She said “City of Angels” is her love letter to Los Angeles, where she is currently based.
“I wrote this one about chasing big dreams in a city that’s full of lights, but also has the dark corners of reality,” she said. “It’s about finding yourself in the middle of all that chaos and remembering where you came from.”
She said living in Los Angeles has put her in touch with incredible collaborators and given her new perspectives that have vastly impacted her music.
“I’ve experienced so much life since moving here, gone to interesting places, encountered new people,” she said. “This has all influenced my songwriting tremendously.”
Lunny’s second album will also house tracks “You’re on the couch, I’m in the kitchen” and “Marilyn,” two songs she has also been teasing on social media.
“This album is all about duality. Lyrically, Sonically, Visually. My first songs when I was 12 were very folk and acoustic,” Lunny said. “This album merges that originality with a modern alternative-pop flare! It turned out exactly how I wanted it to.”
Lunny’s last project was 2023’s EP “HEARTBREAK ON REPEAT.” Her artistry has since evolved.
“I have truly grown so much. Touring, moving, experiencing love and heartbreak, navigating the world as a 25 year old,” she said. “All of these things have seeped into my lyrics and inspired so many very honest songs.”
Throughout her journey in music, Lunny has faced challenges getting her voice out there, but she’s excited to continue forging her own path in the industry.
“With social media and the rise of TikTok, etc., it’s definitely become a saturated market. It’s challenging sometimes to reach people and compete for people’s attention,” she said. “As time goes on, I’ve realized all I can do is be authentic and create art that I love. By doing so, being consistent and continuing to grow, I strongly believe that my songs will find their audience.”
“City of Angels” can be streamed on all music platforms. Fans should be on the lookout for more music on the horizon.
