Anna Thoresen’s latest single, “LONELY”, is deeply personal and emotionally charged. The track resonates with anyone who has ever felt lost in a new place. The song is a testament to Anna’s raw talent and independent artistry as she wrote, recorded, mixed and mastered it entirely in her bedroom. She is heavily influenced by rock legends such as Alanis Morissette, Joan Jett, and Janis Joplin, which is evident in LONELY’s blend of introspective lyrics with powerful soul-filled vocals.
The song chronicles moving to Los Angeles and the solitary feelings that accompany being in a new city. Anna’s lyrics are powerful while also painting a picture of late nights spent searching for companionship but only finding echoes of her own thoughts. The production is simple, allowing Anna’s voice to shine and make every word feel personal and raw. “LONELY” stands apart from the rest because it is authentic. Anna does not only sing this song, she lives every line. You can feel its power in her voice, her honesty, the frustration, the longing and above all, the strength that it takes to translate those feelings into music. Now more than ever, music is so greatly polished and manufactured. In the sea of overproduced songs, this track feels raw and refreshing.
This release marks a very important step in Anna’s career. To begin with, she now feels she is fully honest in her music, and that honesty is exactly what makes “LONELY” so remarkable. She needs no big studio and no producers to make music that hits hard. She proves that with this single. She will be presenting her music on stage to the public for the first time at Rudolph’s Bar and Tea in Los Angeles on January 18th, 2025. If what the song LONELY sets forth is any clue, Anna Thoresen is certainly an artist to keep an eye on.
