Following the successful debut of her single “Sweeter Than Poison” on September 22nd, British pop sensation Lilise is back with her soul-baring second release, “You Don’t Own Me.” With her distinctive blend of introspection and exuberance, Lilise’s music combines acoustic pop with hints of folk and Americana, tackling themes such as body image, misogyny, love, and revenge.
In her latest song, Lilise explores the depths of teenage heartbreak and the struggle to break free from the grip of attachment. “You Don’t Own Me” delves into the overwhelming feeling of losing control and the profound impact it has on one’s mental health, offering a poignant narrative that resonates with many.
Despite her budding music career, Lilise remains dedicated to her studies, currently pursuing her A-Levels while aiming to study clinical psychology at university. Hailing from the intersection of Kent and Greater London, she continues to refine her songwriting skills and live performances, boldly standing out in her ballgown and Doc Martens. Her ambition to make her mark as a songwriter and performer is unwavering.
Lilise’s ethereal voice, often compared to Billie Eilish, combined with emotionally charged lyrics, connects with audiences on a personal level, particularly those in her age group. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Taylor Swift, Sara Kays, and Maisie Peters, Lilise is carving her unique path in the music industry. Keep a close watch on this rising star as she approaches the release of her eagerly anticipated debut EP.
