Natalie Clark - Freedom

Freedom - Natalie Clark (Indie Pop) With a timeless sound, Scottish indie pop singer Natalie Clark delivers quite the tub thumper with latest track “Freedom.” Anthemic and boasting quite the build, Freedom is full of tension and anticipation. In “Freedom,” Natalie tells listeners to just go for it, using a rousing gospel choir backing to deliver the hallelujah moment a person may need to make a change and live just as they’ve always dreamed. Mature and powerful, Natalie’s vocals shine on the track, giving a rich alto with the ability to fly into the rafters in those final moments. The sound reminds us a lot of Duffy (“Mercy” and “Warwick Avenue”) in successfully dipping into retro stylings without feeling dated.

Best Lyric: “I was broken, broken and drowing under a tidal wave in the sea.”
