Aria Nichols is a Dubai-based singer-songwriter raised in New Zealand. Not too long ago, she released a melodic electro-pop tune, entitled, “Light It Up”.

Aria Nichols – “Light It Up”

“The song is about my struggle to find motivation during a very difficult time in my life, and the internal battles, frustration, and grief I felt following the death of my newborn daughter. One minute I was pushing myself and beating myself up, the next I was telling myself it’s ok not to be ok. Also, I was trying to achieve things that are very difficult to anyone who’s suffering. I guess it’s quite a deep meaning when you look at it.” – Aria Nichols

‘Light It Up’ tells the tale of a young woman who struggles to recover after suffering a grievous loss. Eventually, she overcomes procrastination, pressure, and the emotional effects of stress.

‘Light It Up’ is a nod to Dubai, where Aria Nichols spent half her life.

The melodic tune contains a relatable storyline, soft vocals, and jungle-inspired instrumentation embedded with Don Fuego’s Arabian-style drops.
