Giift shares her final single of the year, ‘If You Leave’

Giift shares her final words of 2022 and what a year it has been for the young DIY-artist whose boundless, laid-back R’n’B has proved her to be one of the most promising new Scandinavian artists this year. Now, the first chapter in the spectacular story about Giift comes to an end with the release of her final single this year, ‘If You Leave’.

With a total running-time of just 10 minutes, Giift says more than what most artists are capable of during a full-length album. Her debut-EP, Archives, was both an impressive and inspiring release by an 18-year old young girl whose modest and almost shy appearance would go and shine a light on the international neo-soul and R’n’B-scene of 2022.

Giift interprets the youth in her lyrics and sing them out in her own way with a remarkably pure voice. She has a self-taught, boundless way of producing harmonies and musical layers making her minimalistic yet complex and grandiose sound stand out and portray a young girl whose mind, body and soul becomes her music.

“2022 has been very overwhelming to me. Letting go of Archives was also about letting go of an emotionally chaotic period in my life and at the same time it became the ultimate high that collided with new love. ‘If You Leave’ is written right at that time – as a declaration of unlimited love and as the definite ending of a chapter one and the beginning of a new,” Giift tells.
