“Soho Grand” is the latest single from NY bedroom pop singer/songwriter ROREY.
On the new single she shares, “I think we’ve all been at a place where we wondered if things would ever get better. That feeling kept me from seeking help because, for a while, I thought, What’s the point if it never does? Spoiler alert—it did. Healing isn’t linear; for me, it took years of commitment and surrender. To anyone looking for relief, I’d encourage you to lean into the uncertainty. Trust the process—it’s worth it.”
In 2021 she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder It was during this time she wrote six of the eight songs featured on her upcoming sophomore EP, Dysphoria. The collection of music emulates her cognitive dissonance navigating her mental health journey through haunting melodies, ethereal vocals and swirls of hypnotic instrumentals.
The New York native singer-songwriter grew up bi-coastal between Manhattan and LA and started playing guitar at age six and taught herself piano at age 14. In 2019, she left college and moved back to LA to pursue music, releasing her first single, “Predictable” in 2021. ROREY prides herself on her unique rhyme schemes and brutally honest, vulnerable lyrics paired with unforgettable hooks.
ROREY draws lyrical inspiration from anything and everything. She will even pull lyrics from text conversations. “My songwriting has been my greatest confidant and my creative process my only reprieve from the precarious nature of life,” she confides.
