Bailey Bryan on “RIP”

“I’m definitely someone who’s constantly changing and transforming and going through different eras and phases. I wrote ‘RIP’ at a time of recognizing how often I looked to others for approval on whatever changes I was making, and it became a song about shedding that need for approval and learning how to find it within myself.”

RIP” follows on the heels of a standout 2022 with the release of singles “Tragic” and “Passion.” “Tragic” is an honest, deliberate journey of self-reflection and acceptance. On “Passion,” Bailey draws elements from 90’s R&B, funk and pop while putting her own signature twist on the pulsing, upbeat track. Last year also saw the release of Bailey’s fiery collab “MF” ft. 24kGoldn.

Originally from a small town in Washington State, and now newly L.A.-based, Bailey started crafting her own songs on guitar at age twelve and later shaped her sound and style by tapping into an eclectic mix of influences: the ’90s R&B her mother raised her on, the underground hip-hop scene in nearby Seattle, and the highly country songwriting she began exploring upon moving to Nashville at seventeen.
