    Singer-songwriter Onoleigh is taking the music scene by storm again with her electrifying new single, ‘Why Can’t We Dance,’ set to hit the airwaves on August 18. Co-written with Jonathan Wyndham and produced by the acclaimed David Dorn, this up-tempo track is poised to be a fierce dance-floor anthem that’s bound to capture hearts and ignite dance parties.

    Amidst a growing buzz surrounding her musical prowess, Onoleigh has been hailed as a born performer, forging authentic and soulful connections with her audience. Her magic lies in the emotional energy and extensive range she infuses into her commanding vocals, and her latest single is no exception.

    Inspired by a unique perspective on love, life, and connections, ‘Why Can’t We Dance’ exudes pure musical euphoria. It captures the thrill of embracing a feel-good mindset and immersing oneself in the joyful present, unburdened by the weight of future romantic expectations. “So many songs revolve around the concept of someone completing you, so when we wrote this song, it was important to me to share a different perspective, one where you’re able to go out and have a great time without any long-term expectations for love,” reveals Onoleigh, offering a refreshing and liberating insight into the single’s thematic depth.

    ‘Why Can’t We Dance’ bursts forth with electrifying musical energy, adorned by irresistibly infectious melodies and pulsating rhythms. It encapsulates the exhilaration of simply letting loose and beckons you to dance without reservations. Onoleigh’s commanding voice further infuses the track with authentic emotional resonance, embodying the essence of a natural performer.

    This song stands as a testament to her artistry and creative brilliance, showcasing her evolution as an artist who fearlessly explores new perspectives in her music. The groove-laden track, coupled with relatable lyrics, forges an instant bond with listeners, transforming it into a dance-floor anthem that not only resonates but also deeply moves the soul.

    Hailing from Mahomet, IL, Onoleigh’s move to Nashville was a pivotal decision in her pursuit of a music career. The singer’s gift for crafting relatable and compelling songs stems from her background in social work as a guidance counsellor. Her ability to channel compassion and empathy into her songwriting has resonated deeply with audiences.

    Her debut release, “Ghost Stories,” amassed over 20,000 streams, while subsequent features on various esteemed media platforms cemented her industry presence. Notably, her track “Sunshine & Lemonade” even graced the soundtrack of the film “Gringa” earlier this year. This latest release marks a significant stride in Onoleigh’s musical journey, following hits like “Beautifully Broken” (Brandon Hood) and “Make It Hurt” (Maren Morris, Rhett Akins, and Chris DeStefano). Having collaborated with luminaries like John Oates, Nathan Chapman, and Producer Brandon Hood, Onoleigh has showcased her ability to meld diverse influences into a signature sound that is uniquely her own.

    As anticipation mounts for the release of ‘Why Can’t We Dance,’ Onoleigh’s star is on a soaring trajectory, poised to uplift and inspire. Her distinctive voice and her knack for crafting music that strikes a chord with listeners position her as an artist to watch.
