Madisyn Gifford Returns With Nostalgic Folk-Pop Anthem “Die Happy”
Madisyn is just over here dropping our latest nostalgia bump. On our latest peek into the folk world we are checking out Madisyn Gifford’s latest drop “Die Happy”. She may have just broken onto the Vancouver indie scene last fall, she is quickly finding her home. Being adept at singing basically since she could talk, Madisyn has been on the path to embracing the life of a musician since she was able to fathom the concept. Now at a mere twenty years old, Madisyn has plenty to tell listeners, along with the skills to back it up. Releasing her debut single “Without You” back in late 2020, she has already amassed almost 200k online streams. After a very active and prosperous 2021, Madisyn is ready to take the rest of 2022 by the horns and make 2022 her year
“I had been in pretty a dark place before writing this song, and when I wrote the initial idea, it was coming from a place of reprieve. I felt like I had just seen the sun for the very first time after the darkest winter and I remembered how good it felt to feel good. It felt I was like experiencing the honeymoon phase of a love affair with my own life. Jared and I worked through 10 versions before landing on this, and I’m so thrilled with how it turned out. It feels like the kind of song I would’ve loved as a kid – full of summer, nostalgia, and hope.”
Vancouver singer-songwriter Madisyn Gifford returns with her euphoric new single “Die Happy“ via 604 Records, blending indie-folk warmth with the raw, confessional energy of pop. Written during a transformative time in her life, the song reflects newfound joy and the fluttery excitement of a fresh romance. Co-written and produced by Jared Manierka, it radiates nostalgic early 2010s folk-pop vibes, evoking summer nights, first kisses, and the thrill of rediscovery after dark times. With its breezy, acoustic-driven sound, “Die Happy” highlights Madisyn’s evolution while staying true to her signature heartfelt storytelling.
The single is part of a larger body of work set to release later this year, signaling a new chapter in her artistry. It follows recent tracks like “Glad You Got Away,” “Fast One,” and “Seventeen,” which showcase her growing confidence and sonic exploration. “Die Happy” is a bright, hopeful anthem for embracing second chances and falling in love with life again.
