Anna Clendening is an LA-based singer/songwriter who just released her new single “Get Me”. The rising star packs brutally honest lyrics and powerhouse vocals into each of her songs, and “Get Me” is no exception!
This release marks Anna’s debut on Atlantic Records, and arrives alongside a gorgeous music video for the song. Anna says, “This music video is one of the most personal videos I’ve shot. To be able to use my home and my most intimate spaces to convey a song written about an ex relationship was amazing.”
In 2017, Anna released her RIAA-certified Gold single “Boys Like You”, which has amassed over 100 million streams worldwide. In 2019, her debut EP Waves received over 150 million streams in under six months. She joined gnash on the road that same year, and headlined her own Waves tour.
Anna Clendening is also an advocate for mental health awareness, and translates her experiences with anxiety and personal struggles through her music. “Get Me”, as well as her future releases, will continue to tap into these subjects.
She shared, “About five years ago, someone came up to me and said, ‘By fighting through your anxiety in this huge uncomfortable moment on stage, you made me feel so comfortable’. I was like, ‘Well shit, now I’m in it. I’ve got to be open about it.’ I want you to be able to scream my music in the car. I want you to feel like the things going through your head are normal. I want you to feel empowered. I want you to feel loved. I am loud. I am obnoxious. I am a potty mouth. I’m very emotional. I write music. I wear sweatpants. I’m myself. I’m just fucking human, man.”
And that’s what music is all about.
