MUANH is a rising Vietnamese-German musician who spent much of her childhood living between the US and Germany.
Growing up while also moving homes can take quite the toll on any young person, and so, ‘Ever Since’ is a song addressing the loneliness and feelings of not belonging.
This introspective track tells of the insecurities that MUANH has had to tackle, all for the sake of ‘fitting in’ to her surroundings, while also finding ways to accept and embrace those thoughts. As she explains:
“Growing up between the U.S. and Germany as child, with a Vietnamese mother and a German father, I learned early on how to adapt – how to blend in just enough, to not take up too much space. I spent most of my childhood in the Southwest German countryside in spaces where no one really looked like me, where I felt like I had to leave parts of myself behind just to be accepted. That feeling never really left.
It followed me into everything, into my choices, into the way I carry myself, into the constant push and pull between doing what’s expected and doing what actually feels like me. I took the safe path, became a teacher, but music has always been the thing that keeps pulling me back. Still, no matter how much I do, I never feel like I’m fully present in either world. Like I’m stretched too thin, juggling too much, and still feeling like I’m falling short.
‘Ever Since’ came from that place. From the exhaustion of constantly trying to fit in, from second-guessing myself every time I walk into a room. From that quiet, lingering voice asking, Did I say something wrong? Did I act weird? It’s about how easy it is to lose yourself in expectations, whether they come from other people or from yourself.”
Despite MUANH being a recent discovery to us, we’re pleased to see that this talent has already racked up thousands of streams on Spotify from previous singles – all of which you can explore here.
