"The Moon" is a declaration of confidence and contentment for Toronto’s Saya

Brewing the same moody undercurrents as Goldilox with the playful, club-ready energy of Charli XCX, Saya has been making waves with her tropical summer jam "Played Out" and the slow burning tones of "Side Ting".

Channelling lazily bassy beats and a 90s R&B sentimentality, "The Moon" strikes a perfect balance between her juxtaposing shades. Deploying a far more chilled out vibe than her recent releases, the Canadian artist brings a soulful vocal and a quiet, self-assured swagger to the track embued by a confidence that belies her 23 years.

"I wrote ‘The Moon’ in 2016 during a big writing trip in London, UK," Saya says of the track which - despite its moody nature - speaks of her newfound sense of satisfaction. "In the song I’m riding my own wave of happiness and freedom, on my own time, and in my own world. I was at a point where I was letting go of residual anger from my past and moving forward. Moments of peace only come once and a while for me so I’m happy I could translate that into a song."
