'Impact' marks Hallie’s fifth single since launching her music career in June 2020.
Emerging Irish artist Hallie has returned with brand new single 'Impact', which sees the singer-songwriter at her most vulnerable and raw stage of music production yet.
Her fifth single is written as an honest, open conversation to herself while reflecting on a past turbulent relationship. It features a plea for understanding and acceptance, following a breakup that arrived without closure and wounds that never seem to heal.
The rising act is fast making a name for herself for crafting emotive, honest, alternative pop with shades of synth pop combined with a unique brand of art pop. Previous single 'Circles' was made Track of the Day back in October 2021, and for good reason.
Hallie first emerged in May 2020 with her debut single ‘Familiar Place’. Since then. she has released three more singles to critical acclaim, with rotation on multiple national and international radio stations.
Hallie is an avid mental health and chronic pain advocate who intends to use her platform to remind others who've struggled that they are never truly alone in dealing with their illnesses. She was diagnosed with inoperable end stage double jaw joint degenerative disease last year, with no hope of replacements due to permanent mental health and chronic illnesses. Unfortunately, the creative will never be free of debilitating chronic pain which drastically affects her singing, but has chosen to continue nevertheless.
She began writing poems and songs as a personal release to soothe and channel her lifelong battle with depression, anxiety and chronic pain.
