“This EP was born from so many emotions—dreams, regrets, truths, and realisations. To know that people around the world have connected with it in such a meaningful way is beyond anything I could have imagined,” shares Ananya.
Since the release of i woke up one night, Ananya has continued her upward trajectory with a string of compelling follow-up singles. Emotions became an empowering anthem about healing and setting boundaries, while Happy, released during Mental Health Awareness Month, layered poignant lyricism with an airy yet melancholic soundscape. Most recently, All That Glitters Isn’t Gold—a haunting reflection on broken trust—has had an impactful first week, further cementing her ability to weave deeply personal themes into universally relatable music.
With a style reminiscent of artists like Lorde, Gracie Abrams, and Holly Humberstone, Ananya is carving out her own space in the global Pop landscape, effortlessly blending dreamy sonics with sharp introspection. As she gears up for her next phase, anticipation is high for what’s to come.
