In Anna Volpe’s newest single “Tie Me Down,” she shows that she is the master of creating an eerie environment for everyone indulging in this song. Featuring musical artist Hustle Standard, the simplicity of the repeating lyrics forces the listeners into a state of being on edge from start to finish. The semi-dissonant harmonies aid everyone in the strong imagery that Volpe is trying to create. Throughout this ballad, Volpe’s vulnerability is clear when singing about “...being at the bottom,” allowing the listeners to connect with her on an intimate level about trying to hold on in times of hardship. This single will bring out every scary emotion that a human can feel and will challenge the way that you listen to music from here on out.
