Anna Wilson Finds A Stranger In The Room: New Song
Anna Wilson has just released Stranger In The Room and its now our New Song Of The Day!
Here’s the blurb with more:
Singer Anna Wilson launches her brand new single, ‘Stranger in the Room’, this week.
The pop track is written by singer/songwriter Sally Faherty and produced by Jonathan Campbell of 1212 Music and Big Pop Studios and showcases Wilson’s vocal powerhouse. Its lyrics speak to questioning how well you think you know somebody and advise caution.
Wilson is excited to be able to share the single with the world; with Campbell based in Canada and the challenges of the pandemic, the project has been in the works for the last two years.
“It’s so great to be getting this single out there at last. I love that this song can be interpreted in many ways. It’s mysterious, but at the end of the day we are on a journey to find our person and in doing so we can often create ghosts of our pasts,” says Wilson.
Wilson hasn’t always been a pop singer. She began her musical career in country music when she was in primary school. Inspired by her grandfather, Lenny Andrews, who was a country singer, she made her stage debut at eight years old, singing Willie Nelson’s “Always on my Mind” to an audience of 4,000.
Since those early days, she has performed around the country and appeared on TV with many top New Zealand artists, including Stan Walker who was her mentor when she wowed audiences with her performances on X-Factor in 2013. Since then, Anna has had some time away from the mic working on her Pilates business. She returns to the music scene with this brand new single and a reignited passion to share her music, both online and on stage.
“Music feeds my soul as it can channel emotions, ” she says. Singing songs that communicate the energy and mood of the audience is something I love doing, so live performances are always a favourite.
