Scarlett Fae first became known in the Reniverse for her smooth backup vocals in Ren’s cover of “Back on ’74 / Message in a Bottle.” Since that unforgettable performance by Ren, Scarlett has gracefully stepped into her own spotlight, releasing several original songs that showcase her vibrant spirit, poetic prose, and impressive vocal range. Her music seamlessly blends soulful, indie vibes with a contemporary twist that’s sure to appeal to listeners of all ages. Moreover, her rich voice and intimate performances leave listeners feeling like they’ve been wrapped in a warm hug.
Scarlett Fae’s music and stage presence are guaranteed to melt you into a puddle of contentedness, while her lyrical depth will leave you feeling thoughtful and nostalgic. But Scarlett Fae’s artistry extends far beyond her own music; she is a passionate champion for fellow creators. In Brighton, she has curated and hosted multiple "Sunfae" events, providing a free platform for local musicians and artists to showcase their work. The events are described as a “sanctuary for creativity” and a place where “music, art, and conversation flow together,” and they demonstrate her commitment to growth and collaboration with her fellow artists.
Her latest release, “Ridin’,” drops on 26 April, but you can view the live recording of the song on YouTube ahead of the official drop. It’s soft and warm, with restrained vocals full of yearning and self-doubt. The song is honest and relatable, and the themes of self-doubt really resonate with me personally.
Honestly, if you’re sleeping on Scarlett Fae, it’s time to wake up. Check out “Ridin’” on YouTube and while you’re there give “Stayed Swimmin’” a listen too. After that, do yourself a favor and listen to everything else she has to offer.
