You are in for a treat… AINSLIE is the solo project of Vicky Warwick a British artist currently residing in the US. Who is Vicky you may ask? Vicky is the bass-player that played in Charli XCX’s band and appeared on award shows with Cee Lo Green. Her form of anxiousness led her to make her own music, whenever she would spend months away from home on the road, she itched to be spending whatever time she had writing music; whether it meant finding a quiet corner of the tour bus, or an unoccupied room at a venue. AINSLIE’s debut single “Grow” deals with the human need to climb up the ladder of society.
I found myself walking in this beautiful neighborhood being curious about the stories behind each person or family inside each house. Wondering if they are as happy as I imagined they were. What seemed like a perfect world, might be not what it cracked up to be, and I considered if it was what I would want for myself anyway. Society has taught us it’s something we should strive for, so part of me was longing to live that life behind one of the perfect front doors, but part of me also felt a disconnect; it was far from what I truly want in life. – Vicky Warwick
AINSLIE’s music draws from magnifying personal experiences, and she likes to imagine the world from other’s perspectives. It has themes of fantasies, inner thought and commentaries of suburbia and our everyday lives.
