Ellie Byers releases a lovely indie R&B tune, entitled, “Role Play”

Ellie Byers is an up-and-coming singer-songwriter from the UK. Not too long ago, she released a lovely indie R&B tune, entitled, “Role Play.”

Ellie Byers – “Role Play” single

‘Role Play’ tells a heartfelt tale about a woman who shares a challenging relationship with her cold-hearted significant other. Apparently, they had issues from the start, and now they only get along when they pretend. As of late, she feels she isn’t quite good enough or doesn’t meet her companion’s standards anymore. Therefore, she role-plays as a quick solution to satisfy her partner’s sensual needs, wants, and desires. Later, she tells her companion, “Maybe if we pretend long enough, maybe we won’t fall apart. And if we focus on what we will become, even if it makes pretending our love.”

‘Role Play’ contains a relationship-based narrative and ear-pleasing vocals that will resonate well with fans of Amber Jones, YaSi, and Cherry Lena. The emotional tune possesses melodic instrumentation bursting with indie R&B flavors and urban pop elements. Furthermore, “Role Play” serves as a therapeutic foretaste to what listeners can expect to hear from Ellie Byers in the near future as she continues to release new and exciting music.

“I’m pretty good at setting things on fire.”

“‘Role Play’ is a very personal song for me. It’s about pretending to be what you think your partner needs and wants, in an effort to keep a sinking relationship afloat. Even if that means sacrificing who you really are.” – Ellie Byers explained

Both unflinchingly vulnerable and passionately determined, Ellie Byers connects with the broken-hearted and those newly in love, in equal measure. Through sultry tones, melodies, and lyrics that capture both the beauty and tragedy of love, Ellie hopes to be a source of comfort and redemption for her listeners.
