Nadia Vaeh - Heavy

A native of Atlanta with an American mother and a Lebanese father, Nadia Vaeh found her way into artistry through modeling and joining a local Atlanta circus. She started singing in their productions, but this was not the beginning of her artistic roots.

Nadia’s love of music and singing began at the age of two and was nurtured by her parents by placing her into a traveling youth-choir. Her mother was a poet and passed on her love of words, which later lent to fuel her as a lyricist. Nadia tragically lost her mom to suicide at the age of 17, which shifted the course of the young artist.

She dismantled her high-school band and strayed from songwriting and singing for years, other than the occasional karaoke. After this tragic loss, she states that she went down a path of self-sabotage and destruction and used relationships and partying to ignore her pain. When she finally decided to begin again with artistry, she was a shell of a person and looking to anyone and anything for answers to deal with her heartbreak. She reflects, "I made a lot of missteps when I first began my career and had to learn a lot of things the hard way."

Having relocated to Los Angeles, Nadia Vaeh now makes music to heal and inspire others. Today, she returns with her brand new single called "Heavy" which follows previously released pop gems, "Naked" and "Mirrors". "Heavy" showcases Nadia's dexterous command of lyricism about two lovers absorbed in a relationship that's more like a game of manipulating each other.

Speaking on the track, Nadia says:

"I wrote 'Heavy' from a very light place actually. It was a way to break the cycle of the silly relationship game myself and ex-lover had created. I sent him the song and he actually loved it... I think it helped us both come to terms with our romance just not being in the cards."

"Heavy" is available now on iTunes.
