It’s a bit sad, but also reassuring that the concept of a ‘Mid-youth crisis’ is increasingly common amongst our generation. Born in the social media age, being hyper aware of everyone’s achievements and life often has you looking inward, questioning your own choices and progress. Should I be working for a better future? Should I be experiencing my youth? Honestly, it’s all too much to even fixate on. Lea G’s indie pop anthem puts it into a perspective that’s poignant, timely, and all too relatable. At the end of the day, we don’t want to deal with those responsibilities, those things that inevitably weigh us down. The freedom of youth, the absence of boundaries and limitations — that’s the state we all yearn to be in.
‘MIDYOUTH CRISIS’ is your classic indie pop tune, the one to play in a coming of age movie, the one to sing along with your friends as the sun sets. It’s innately nostalgic, bringing to life a feeling of immortality and timelessness with an addictively catchy chorus and an energy that’s loaded with warmth. Born and raised in the Austrian mountains, Lea G first fell in love with music aged 6 singing in her school choir. After spending a year in England at 16 as an exchange student, she found her calling as a singer-songwriter and performer.
Her music is confident, assured, and immensely relatable. It’s also loaded with warmth and passion that has you falling in love with it as soon as its over.
