Interview with Madilyn Bailey

We had the pleasure of interviewing Madilyn Bailey over Zoom video!Pop singer-songwriter Madilyn Bailey recently released her Hollywood Dead LP! Prior to its release Madilyn dropped a scintillating trilogy of earnest pop bangers, “Doomsday in LA”, “Tattoos & Therapy”, and the most recent single, "Serious"."Serious" is a summer anthem that melds head-bopping percussion with infectious synth sparkles, and finds Madilyn with one foot out of the door, struck by the possibility of a momentous new beginning. Set against the sweltering backdrop of Los Angeles, Madilyn comes to terms with an impending and unexpected love, considering what it would feel like to tear her own walls down. A sunny whirlwind of rich guitar and danceable rhythms, "Serious" is a candid exploration of what it feels like to let loose and invite a new love into your story despite all odds.Along with the track, Madilyn also shared an accompanying music video featuring her husband that weaves through Madilyn's path towards unexpected love. Against a dreamy backdrop of floating pastel pink and set in reverse, Madilyn quite literally takes a stroll down memory lane, recounting the series of events that led her to see that she wouldn't have to give up any part of herself for the right person - her world would just get bigger.Madilyn says the song is about:“A person who is nervous that a relationship will get in the way of their future plans but meets someone they just can't stop thinking about. It’s always been easy to stay unattached, at arms length in a relationship but not with this guy… and this is a serious problem.” Madilyn is a bonafide social media sensation with 9.5 million subscribers on YouTube, 3.2 million followers on TikTok, 1.8 million followers on Facebook and 1.6 million monthly listeners on Spotify. She made a name for herself covering popular songs on YouTube before gaining further notoriety in 2021 when she auditioned for America’s Got Talent using her own original song with lyrics made up entirely of hate comments she had received on her channel. Madilyn’s resilience and talent caught the attention of Simon Cowell and she swept through all the way to the competition’s semi-finals. More Info: Hailing from a tiny town in rural Wisconsin, Madilyn began posting acoustic covers to her YouTube channel in 2009. Her viewership quickly exploded and her covers of Titanium (120 million views), Rockabye (71 million views) and Shape of You (52 million views) have all gone super viral on the platform. She found a passion for writing her own music shortly after and has defined her voice as an artist through a number of successful original singles like True Crime, Red Ribbon, and Tetris, all of which merge Madilyn’s clever, relevant lyricism with powerful pop production.We want to hear from you!
