Quaintly serene synths and mellow vocal aspirations lead “Never Too Young,” an engaging new track from Chicago-based artist Abigail Arkley. “I wrote this in a time of deep searching for meaning and purpose, desperate to break away from both societal and personal constraints and expectations,” Arkley explains, placing a particular emphasis on youth and feelings of weariness, anxiety, and lofty expectations that come alongside. “Ultimately, ‘Never Too Young’ captures a journey of self-exploration, a desire for renewal, and a confrontation with one’s inner self.”
The second release from Arkley’s upcoming EP, “Never Too Young” enthralls in its blissful atmospheric escape — infusing a title-touting refrain with lush entrancement alongside sporadic twinkling and spacey synth frequencies. “Never Too Young” is an enveloping, dreamily enchanting success from Abigail Arkley, whose EP we’re certainly now anticipating.
