Introducing Melbourne artist Maddie Rae, coming onto the scene with her dark introspective track “Watching Me”. “Watching Me” carries us through wave after wave of Maddie’s inner musings, expertly weaved together with a gentle yet unsuspecting intensity, culminating together in a perfect ebb and flow.
Having grown up in the era of infinite information, unrestricted social media, and the foreboding threat of climate change, Maddie Rae is the personification of her generation. With an almost disney channel aesthetic, paired with a sense of inevitable doom, Maddie Rae embodies the dissonance that is the Gen Z reality.
Her maximalist clutter-core style is a wonderful assault on the senses, and her music is no different. Ranging from the softest of piano tones, to the grittiest driving guitar, “Watching Me” moves seamlessly and effortlessly between every extreme. With clear influences from iconic artists such as Billie Eilish and Australian artist Kat Edwards, Maddie Rae brings forth her own individual voice to the pop scene through her thoughtful and insightful lyrics.
