With ‘Light It Up’, LA-based artist and producer Esthy delivers a high-energy country-meets-pop anthem that’s pure feel-good energy. It’s an instant mood-booster that mixes playful lyrics, infectious hooks and an irresistible beat that you simply have to dance to. For fans of Anne-Marie, OneRepublic or 2013-era Avicii, this is a fresh and familiar sound steered by Esthy’s instinct for blending charming twangy melodies with a glossy pop production. This track couldn’t have come at a better time of year, it’s just so summery and uplifting, perfect for parties, friend hangouts or road-trips.

As a celebratory, unapologetically fun number, ‘Light It Up’ lets you leave your doubts at the door and just be in the moment. It’s fresh, flirty, and infectiously fun from start to finish and yet at the same time it’s an empowering statement from a woman in music who is clearly here to make her mark. With a pop hook that you can’t get out of your head, “we can light it up,” this song arrives as a refreshing burst of life that cuts through the mundanity of day-to-day living. Esthy really does know how to craft a crowd-pleaser and as she continues to grow in her music career, we’re sure that there’s many more authentic bangers to come.
