Alyssa Reid Returns With Hauntingly Nostalgic New Single “Seven”
Alyssa Reid, born in Edmonton, AB, and raised in Brampton, ON, skyrocketed to fame with her #1 debut single Alone Again featuring P. Reign, which sold over a million copies worldwide. Since then, she has achieved three Platinum, three Gold, and one Silver certification, along with multiple Top 10 and Top 20 hits on Canadian pop radio. With over 100 million streams on her own music, Reid has toured internationally and built a dedicated fanbase drawn to her powerful vocals and emotive songwriting.
Beyond her success as an artist, Reid has made a name for herself as a sought-after songwriter, penning hits for artists like Virginia to Vegas, Bülow, and Alessia Cara. Her co-writes have accumulated over 500 million streams, cementing her as a major creative force in the pop industry. Balancing her own artistry with behind-the-scenes contributions, she continues to shape the modern pop landscape.
“‘Seven’ explores the fears we carry as children—the monsters under the bed, the shadows in the closet, the unknown lurking in the dark. We grow up believing that home is the safest place, that our parents are our protectors. But as we get older, we start to see the truth: the real harm was never in the things we feared at night. It was in the people who were supposed to keep us safe.”
Alyssa Reid’s latest single, seven, marks a striking departure from the buoyant energy of her recent releases, Never Going Home and Put Your Phone Down. Trading shimmering synths for a darker, more introspective palette, seven plunges into the fears we carry from childhood and the painful revelations that surface as we grow older. The song unearths buried emotions with a rawness that is both haunting and deeply relatable, peeling back layers of nostalgia, regret, and self-discovery.
Sonically, seven crafts an eerie, melancholic atmosphere, where sparse yet evocative production amplifies the song’s emotional weight. Haunting piano melodies form the backbone of the track, while ethereal echoes and subtle, atmospheric textures create a dreamlike haze of introspection. Alyssa’s signature crystalline vocals hover delicately above the mix, effortlessly capturing the fragility and weight of the song’s narrative. Her delivery, at once haunting and deeply human, draws listeners into a world of lingering shadows and unspoken pain, revealing a side of her artistry that feels more personal than ever before. With seven, Alyssa Reid not only shifts sonic gears but also offers one of her most vulnerable and poignant songwriting moments to date.
