Songwriter, Khidyie is an Irish-Hong Kong musician currently based in Drogheda, whose music explores the delicate balance between reality and fantasy. Her sound is a dreamy blend of folk and ethereal elements, inspired by the way the mind can transform the ordinary into something beautiful and romantic. With a fascination for how everyday moments can be warped into poetic escapism, Khidyie creates music that feels both grounded and otherworldly.
The latest single from the artist is the dreamy, Have We Met Before, the first single release from Khidyie's upcoming EP which delves into themes of lust, limerence, and the intricacies of love. With every song, she invites listeners into her unique perspective on life, where the mundane is met with the extraordinary.
Khidyie's songwriting is an unfiltered stream of consciousness, using music as a space to articulate thoughts and emotions that can’t always be easily expressed in day-to-day conversation. Through her work, she gives voice to the longing and liberation felt by the hopeless romantics, the dreamers, and the hearts that yearn for something more.
Written to express the nuanced feeling of knowing someone intimately, even though you barely know them. It expresses the connection that can exist between two people who seem fated to cross paths. The song creates the sensation of familiarity, like an echo of a connection that exists in a fantasy rather than reality- Khidyie
The single, Have We Met Before is available through all streaming platforms.
