Up and coming singer-songwriter Alaina Castillo is continuing her rise with her new song, ‘ocean waves’.
Written by Alaina and RØMANS, the track was premiered on Complex and showcases dreamy RnB vibes. As always, Alaina’s ethereal vocals take centre stage as she sings over a captivating clapping beat.
Speaking about the track, Alaina said: “‘ocean waves’ is about giving in to your feelings and letting things go for the sake of your own happiness. We started with the ocean because its full of mystery and darkness which I love so it all just comes together to give u a song that can turn that dark place into something of beauty.”
