 From Wales, cinematic alt-pop artist Freyja Elsy drifts into dreamlike territory with "In My Veins." Built around soft piano, gentle textures, and an easy, flowing melody, the song feels both intimate and quietly enchanting.

“Loud words taste violent, so I whisper.”

We asked Freyja about the song's background:

“‘In My Veins’ is about reflecting on moments from early life, realising the drastic impact they can have on everything that follows, for better or worse, and coming to terms with that. There’s also a sense of trying to reconnect with emotions and with other people after a long period of numbness, knowing that this is key to moving forward and finding something more hopeful."

Freyja also shared how "In My Veins" came together:

"The song started with a piano loop I had forgotten that I’d recorded into my electric piano years prior, and used that as the foundational tool to build up the song layers from there.”

The first single from her upcoming 2026 EP to stop the world turning, "In My Veins," unfolds with quiet grace and rewards a close listen. Listen to "In My Veins," our Song Pick of the Day:
