Ariella

Ariella’s second single, “Ready,” starts to blend punk influences with the signature folk and melancholic atmosphere that she cherishes. This track diverges from traditional narratives of heartbreak, choosing instead to explore the emotion through a lens of unfiltered frustration, rather than yearning sadness. “Ready” delves into the complexities of a tempestuous and cyclical relationship, capturing the essence of a connection that is both intense and challenging. Ariella’s lyrical choices articulate the difficulty of breaking free from the entanglement, offering listeners a poignant glimpse into the struggle of disentangling oneself from a relationship that is as captivating as it is constraining.
