Carry You - Ruelle ft Fleurie
LCM Song Of The Day: ‘Carry On’ - Ruelle (ft. Fleurie)
We travel today to Nashville meet Margaret "Maggie" Eckford better known by her stage name ‘Ruelle’. Our chosen song is the beautiful ‘Carry On’ also featuring US singer-songwriter Fleurie. This stunning new video was filmed in Iceland.
Maggie comments about the song “I wanted to create something that sheds light on the goodness of humanity in the midst of what seems like a lot of darkness. I have always believed that people in their ugliest, most hateful states have all been wounded in some way, at some point in their lives. I wanted to portray the common threads in humanity: We all feel pain. We all believe in something...and that more than ever, we should be coming together to lift one another up, not tearing each other down. It’s about the beauty of people coming together regardless of their differences”.
Maggie’s music is a wonderful blend of electronic pop and has been used widely on US television series including ‘Shadowhunters’ and The ‘Shannara Chronicles’ themes and placements in ‘Arrow’, ‘Pretty Little Liars’, ‘Quantico’, ‘The Vampire Diaries’, ‘The Walking Dead’ and many more.
She grew up in Hattiesburg, Mississippi and attended music school in Sydney, Australia. She adopted the French word "Ruelle" as her stage name because she liked how it gave off a sense of darkness and mystery and how it had multiple meanings including "chamber" and "wolf".
Also check out Ruelle’s wonderful new EP ‘Emerge’ released in August.
