Philly-based singer/songwriter Sara Seyed impresses on the track “Loopy,” showing a lush and entrancing vein of pop with nocturnal synths and plucked strings. I’m fondly reminded of Jessy Lanza’s aesthetic — showing a melodic, accessible vein of pop, while also prioritizing a sense of atmospheric gratification. The strings and synths interact cohesively, as Seyed’s smoothly gripping vocals alternate between lush verses and a more pulsing, infectious hook. The 21-year-old Seyed is absolutely a rising artist to keep an ear out for.
“Loopy” was written by Seyed, and produced by Mark Kraus and Johnny Vitale (Loneshark).
