Today, August 30, bi-coastal songstress--NYA--releases debut track "Let Go" and the official music video for the single, in lieu of her Mania EP announcement (due out September 22). Premiered today on the HUFFINGTON POST, Randy Radic says of the track and video: "Stylistically, NYA's sound emanates a definite R&B flavor, along with elements of pop, electronic music and soul. Her inimitable voice radiates influences from legends like Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra, along with the prevailing contemporary virtues of innovation and avant garde dynamics supported by classical training. It's a voice that exudes a fragile vulnerability and an exotic, sensual aspect that's sultry yet delicate, and fully capable of Diva-like projection when the music demands."

NYA says of her Mania EP: "The creation of the mania EP has been quite the journey. I am so thankful for what this process has taught me. This EP is all about the mania of growing up. It's about falling on your face and getting back up again every single day. These songs are in many ways very different from each other, but they all tackle the craziness of youth from realizing that guy/girl you liked is ghosting you, to struggling with the pressures of family life. Music has touched my life so profoundly. It is my solace during the hard times. My wish for this EP is to be there for someone else in the same way. I wanted to create something that connected people. Too often the human condition divides us, when it's the one thing we all have in common. For anyone who gets to read this and listen, thank you. I am so grateful to be able to share this piece of me."

About NYA: NYA, a singer-songwriter with a soulful vibe and humble spirit, has never cared to fit into any one particular mold, and the artist's genre-bending music reflects an inspiring boundlessness. Hailing from Tampa, Florida NYA began her artistic pursuits under the guidance of the GRAMMY Music Foundation, and quickly discovered music to be the most powerful channel for her self-expression. Rooted in her personal values of living one's truth, and spreading kindness & love, NYA's sound is mercurial, and a timeless blend of classic soul and alternative R&B. Influenced by legends such as Frank Sinatra and Aretha Franklin, Nya's debut EP is a satisfying bridging of old and new sounds.
