Nadia Vaeh - 'Anxiety'


LA-based singer-songwriter Nadia Vaeh shares her experience with mental health disorders on moody new single, ‘Anxiety’.

Perfectly translating a feeling into song is a difficult task, but ‘Anxiety’ brings its namesake to life. A tumultuous bassline bubbles underneath the seemingly smooth surface of sleek synth-coated verses and hypnotic vocals, evoking the claustrophobic feeling of being stuck in your head. The track’s dark aura comes full circle in a stormy chorus that sees Nadia Vaeh scream out – “I think I'm falling for anxiеty. My thoughts are on the run from me.“

”Anxiety is a fabric of my life, as it is for so many others” explains Vaeh. “This world breeds anxiety as if it were positive for us. Sometimes I am able to channel my anxieties in a positive way; other times, it can disable my ability to function. It really just depends on the day...sometimes the hour. I am just glad society is arriving to a place where we can keep the topic of mental health a bit more open. The more we embrace the light and dark sides of the human experience the easier it is to recognize and enjoy the goodness.”

‘Anxiety’ is another impressive offering from an artist with the exceptional ability to create magnetic spirals of sound within her tracks. Paired with gorgeously emotive vocals, Nadia Vaeh is on the road to the top.
