Madison Cunningham - In From Japan. An exclusive live performance for Vevo.
You probably knew that Madison Cunningham was a bit of a philosopher the first time "Song In My Head" entered your world. The 2019 gem, from her 'Who Are You Now' debut, references "a line that never stops playing," making the best out of the worst, and being uncomfortable with "too much silence." The best songwriters do weigh in on the conundrums we all face, and more and more, the 26-year-old is joining those ranks. 'Who Are You Now' was nominated for a Best Americana Album award at the 2020 GRAMMYs, and last year's 'Revealer' nailed it in the Best Folk Album category at this year's show. The SoCal native grew up in a religious household, and played guitar in her dad's church, ultimately recording a spiritual album as a teen. As her musical interests grew, her performance talent followed suit. Soon enough the contact numbers of wise artists such as Chris Thiele and Andrew Bird were in her phone, and this ardent Jeff Buckley fan was on her way. That debut made a splash (don't miss the deep cut, "Common Language"), and 'Revealer' cemented it. Increasingly confident at the mic, last summer's Tiny Desk Concert further revealed her charisma. You'll find the same zest in her rhythmically sophisticated performances of "All I've Ever Known" and "In From Japan." When you're done watching, find out where Cunningham is playing near you and grab some tickets. She's too good to miss.

No one's holding you back now No one's holding you back now Carnival skies, ballet on ice Bombs exploding in reverse The world's greatest song Is one no mortal's ever heard Wired for sound, infected with doubt Petals falling at your feet It's hard to pick out The imitation from the real thing Out from the West The city sparkles like a sequined dress You're sitting right across from a lifeless Animation of yourself The dog days are getting smaller as you pull away A phone line from the future Calls to say, ""You're gonna mess it up again My friend"" No one's holding you back now No one's holding you back now The planet in orbit wanes Some things are too hard to say Out loud No one's holding you back now No one's holding you back now No one's holding you back now, no one No one's holding you back now
