Andra Day is known for her one of a kind voice, her striking looks and her powerful lyric content. The YouTube sensation turned Warner Bros./Buskin Records signee got the attention of over 900,000 users with her mashups of today’s top hip hop and R&B songs with the timeless classics of Marvin Gaye and more.
Now, the San Diego bred artist is stepping in to her own spotlight and gearing up to release her first studio album, “Cheers to the Fall.” Her debut single, “Forever Mine,” is an ode to doo-wop and good ol’ fashioned love.
In a new interview with The Fader, she said of the song, “Finding that love and level of peace was different from anything I’d experienced,” so she wrote about the way she felt.
Listen to the new single before her appearance at ESSENCE Fest on Sunday, July 4th.
