The 6-track-EP consists of a collection of voice memos, with raw and haunting vocals accompanied by a single instrument recorded on Ashlynn's iPhone. Having first been noticed on TikTok, her intention is to strengthen the connection she has with her listener via this brand new EP.
About the project, Ashlynn shares: "What I care about most when it comes to music is connection. I write about connection and I write to connect with people. I think that's why releasing something as vulnerable as a collection of voice memos appeals to me (and also lowkey scares the shit out of me). If I’m honest about the things that I struggle with or think about, it might make someone who stumbles across my work less alone and maybe even excited that someone else shares the same thoughts they don't always feel safe enough to talk about.
The whole release strategy of this EP is taking a more personal route. Reaching out to my audience organically through TikToks that aren’t too 'polished' or perfect. More tearing down that wall between artist and consumer and inviting the people who give their time to listening to me into my mind and my process."
