Listen to new single from Shrewsbury's 'angry, sparkly pop girl' Samira, who tells how Shropshire has been 'safe place' on her trans journey
An emerging “angry girl pop” singer from Shropshire has unleashed her newest single after building a strong following within the LGBTQ community.
Samira Hills, from Belle Vue in Shrewsbury, recently headlined her hometown Pride festival and has followed it up with her new single, Nice Catch.
She describes the synth-pop track as “as a bold anthem for the death of true romance and the aching desire for something real”.
"There's plenty of fish, but if you’re fishing out the same bucket, you’re gonna catch the same one."
"I was starting to feel quite sad about the fact that true romance is dead. I feel like there's so much pressure to look as hot as you possibly can and to get your social dating profiles to look as pristine as they possibly can.
"Then there's the whole thing with ghosting, and not replying too soon, and it's just exhausting. So I wanted to write a song about the death of true romance and yearning for something real."
