New York, NY (Top40 Charts) UK based singer/songwriter Leonie Prater shares the latest track taken from her debut album �Metamorphosis� which she released on 12th March 2021. The single �Market Alley� takes inspiration form the picturesque city of Winterthur in Switzerland, where there is a bustling alley named Market Alley. Situated in the old town, it usually brims with life but in the early mornings when no one is around it has a peaceful and still atmosphere. It was these moments which inspired Leonie to write the song, as she explains: �The song is about a lonely musician busking in the alley. More and more people are walking through the alley but the busker still feels lonely and alone. Even in all the loneliness the person feels an inner peace and an inner light that gives him/her strength to keep on going.�
The self-produced track boasts a beautifully haunting vocal delivery as Leonie explores feelings of isolation. It speaks to those tranquil moments of self-awareness and peace that we sometimes cling on to. The track builds from a stripped back acoustic guitar intro, as other elements are brought in such as a simple drum machine pattern, additional guitars, electronic bass and reverb drenched backing vocals all add to the epic soundscape.
�Market Alley� follows previous singles �The Cracking Sound Of Stone�, �Metamorphosis� and �The River� � all of which are also included on the album. Available on Vinyl as well as digital, Metamorphosis is her first big project and includes songs both based on personal stories or everyday situations. It is a very personal piece of art which tells stories about change, finding a home and suicide and depression.
The 25-year-old artist is based in Marshwood, Dorset. Although born in the UK, she was raised in St. Gallen, Switzerland and it is there where her musical journey began, playing several festivals and shows such as Chraen Openair, Vorstadt Sounds Zurich, JungKult St. Gallen and her biggest success Openair St. Gallen where she played on the same line-up as The Killers, Chvrches and Depeche Mode.
