Only a few debut singles break free from the pressure to sound different or hand out all their flashy skills to grab attention. Lily Galin’s What’s your story is one of those few, something that makes you feel safe without that fixation to outperform everyone.
Hailing from the heart of the music scene, Lily Galin is a Chicago-based singer songwriter. With this much-anticipated original single, she starts to cement her place in the scene with exceptional vocal talent and songwriting prowess.
At the very beginning, What’s your story already feels personal. The delicate piano motif and the airy synths creates a kind of space that will let you open up your heart completely unguarded. Galin’s voice holds a sense of comfort, like a tap on your shoulder while saying “I’ve been there and I felt it, too.”
One thing about this track is its sincere effort to understand you: no unnecessary noise, no pretentious attempt to save you from your struggles. It’s just enough to make you feel you’re not alone, and honestly? It’s not just musicality that creates something like this—it’s empathy, the very act of being human is what makes this moving. And the way Galin turned her personal journey into a shared experience shows the artist she is, sincere and genuine.
