Pictures is the first peek at a fresh new project, emerging from Mared's lockdown musical evolution, which involved co-writing with producer Nate Williams (multi-instrumentalist known for playing keys with the likes of Jamiroquai and Steve Winwood). Mared took her stripped back and soul-pop tunes to his studio in Anglesey as their minds met to create an energetic yet calming production. Mared's uplifting vocals are at the heart of the songs, taking inspiration from a blend of singer-songwriters such as Emily King, Lianne La Havas and Eloise.

solitude

when the world stopped moving (voice memo)

lyrics:

it's been 30 days since i last saw you
30 days since we had nothing to fear
it's been too long now
i'm scared that i'm forgetting how you feel
30 days is way too real

it's been 4 weeks since i last saw you
4 weeks since we made plans to go north
it's been too long now
i'm scared that i'm forgetting you
i feel all out of sorts
4 weeks and i'm not yours

i've been reading books
i've started puzzles
i've been listening to all the greats
i've been trying new foods
i've been buying new shoes
but i can't seem to forget that it's been 30 days

it's been a month since i last saw you
no matter how you say it, it still means the same
it's been too long now
i think that i've forgotten how long it takes
for me to fall, i'm afraid
this time it wasn't long at all
and why it wasn't, i can't say
in fact it just took
30 days

30 days (voice memo)

better late than never - out now
