Though just 16 years old, Gillian Heidi undoubtedly brings a lot of music and songwriting experience to the table, slowly but surely establishing herself as one of the hottest up-and-coming pop acts out of Boston. The singer and songwriter picked up piano at just four-years-old, inspired by her brother, and then went on to teach herself the guitar at age 12. Having dropped her independent debut EP, Unfiltered earlier this year, and gearing up for her debut album 3AM, Gillian Heidi is definitely on the rise.
For her latest single, the talented artist is teaming up with fellow Bostonian rapper Michael Christmas to release “Wonderin’,” a smooth pop anthem. The two artists’ performances blend together wonderfully, while the instrumental helps put listeners in a trance, characterized by its groovy drums and weird effects and melodies.
”I’ve actually been a fan of Michael [Christmas] for a while,” Heidi says. “I absolutely love his style and how creative it is.” Christmas’ buoyant, playful rap verse brings an exciting and unexpected element to Heidi’s melancholic dark-pop stylings on “wonderin’,” a song that tackles relationship insecurity.
