It Could Be Better

After releasing their critically acclaimed debut album CHIVVY have now become a duo and finished a new EP. The second single 'Reign', invites you to a preview of their upcoming EP's new sound. 'Reign' is the song about fantasy and reality and about taking control of your life or letting yourself fall. The music, which was recorded with and co-produced by Daniel 'Fagge' Fagerström (Viagra Boys, Jenny Wilson, Nina Kinert etc), is still as grand and dreamy as before.

CHIVVY creates a large and evocative soundscape with atmospheric guitars, synths and dreamy vocals. The music is often compared to bands such as Warpaint, Beach House, and Cocteau Twins. Last year they released their debut album which was praised by both Swedish and international press and received, among other things, 5 stars by GAFFA and was classified as one of Sweden's best albums of 2021 by HYMN. In 2022, CHIVVY was nominated for the GAFFA prize and the Manifest Awards.

"Let Go, Let Him Hold" is a soul-stirring anthem that invites listeners on a journey of surrender and healing. The song opens with a gentle, introspective tone, capturing the weight of unshared burdens and the struggle to find peace. As the artist grapples with inner shadows, a soothing voice emerges, urging the release of fears and pain into a higher power.

The pre-chorus beautifully sets the stage for vulnerability, highlighting the transformative power of honesty with God. The chorus serves as a powerful reminder to let go, emphasizing that true peace comes from trusting in divine guidance amidst emotional turmoil.

In the second verse, the narrative evolves into one of empowerment, illustrating the courage to step into the light and lay down past struggles. The bridge reassures listeners that even in the midst of life's storms, faith can illuminate the path forward.

As the song culminates in the heartfelt outro, it emphasizes a newfound sense of wholeness and belonging. "Let Go, Let Him Hold" resonates deeply with anyone seeking solace and strength, reminding us that in surrendering our burdens, we find true peace and a supportive presence to guide us through life's challenges.
