Olivia de Happyland is the sort of artist that doesn’t create the kind of music that simply passes through your ears, but one that lingers in your mind long after the final notes have disappeared. Her artistry is a sonic tapestry of emotions and experiences as she vividly paints the daunting reality of her imperfect world, finding solace and sanctuary in her songwriting and hoping to provide an outlet for spiritual awakening for her listeners, encouraging them to find clarity and healing rather than drowning in pain and confining themselves to an island of loneliness. She believes that everyone is navigating life as best as they can, and as such, she hopes listeners find comfort in her lyricism and remember they are never alone.
“LA BENGALA” is a Spanish word that translates to “THE BENGAL.” With this single, Olivia wears her heart on her sleeves, surrendering both strength and vulnerability to the listener and allowing them to get fully immersed in her sonic world as if they were right there besides her as she performs this song.
It is a bloodletting song full of frankness and emotions, and the enticing instrumentation elevates the track’s emotional depth. The guitars are lush and full-bodied, blending intensively with the drums, bass, and keys to create this full-flavored soundscape that provides the ideal bed of support for Olivia’s show-stealing vocal performance.
Olivia has got the kind of attention-grabbing vocals that are gently powerful and immensely expressive, allowing her to perfectly articulate the deep emotions in her performance, and here, she makes good use of them, vividly painting what the song is about with incredible precision, range, and power.
As Olivia gears up for the release of her new album expected to debut in October, she invites all music lovers into her boundary-pushing world, creating memorable tunes that are emotionally resonant and gratifying, and with universal appeal.
Olivia represents the trailblazing indie side, and a single like “LE BENGALA” is a prime example of her undeniably exceptional gifts that allow her to create back-to-back hit songs.
