Forgive, but never forget. That’s the message of strength and resilience behind ‘Sorry’, the powerhouse new single from rising actress and singer-songwriter BONNIE ANDERSON, a bright new force in Australian music. After years of toil, Anderson is finally ready to present herself as she truly is, with a sound that’s uniquely hers.
Released today, Sorry is the kind of pop debut that only comes around once in a blue moon – passionate and emotive, steely-eyed in its conviction and magnetic in sound. It’s the kind of work that can come only from the most fiercely devoted musician, who’s fuelled by little more than skill, taste and dedication.
Sorry isn’t technically Anderson’s debut – even at the young age of 24, she’s had a career that rivals many industry veterans, including an ARIA platinum hit and a current stint as Beatrix on the internationally acclaimed TV show Neighbours, broadcasted to over 65+ countries. But, it’s the truest introduction to audiences that Anderson has ever made.
Sweet and soulful in equal measure, Sorry (which will be performed by Bonnie live on Neighbours as part of her character), is the kind of emotive, artful music that Anderson wants to pursue in life – as long as she’s comfortable in her own skin, that’s the only success she needs.
“I wrote Sorry in 2016 when I was spending a bit of time in LA,” Anderson explains of the song’s conception. “I wrote a lot about my relationship—the broken times as well as the good times—and Sorry was the product of the clear mind that songwriting process gave me.”
Sorry was written with Anderson’s dear friends Johan and Sidnie, and it shows; the heart-on-sleeve lyrics and central message speak to Anderson’s comfort and openness in the studio. “Writing Sorry felt like a huge weight off my back,” she reveals. “I even shed a tear when recording the vocals, which was nice as I can hold my emotions in sometimes. It took me a long time, but I learned eventually that I’m worthy of a better me.”
“The message throughout Sorry is about standing up and saying enough is enough,” Anderson affirms. “It’s about accepting the fact that we all experience different walks of life and we may end up in places we’re not proud of, but we should never regret where we come from and what we’ve been through.”
Anderson writes with a clarity that speaks to her wise-beyond-her-years nature, and hints at the power and artistic creativity that audiences are still yet to see. This kind of emotive, artful music is what Anderson wants to pursue in life—as long as she’s comfortable in her own skin, that’s the only success she needs.
But given the fact she’s already got a built-in fanbase—over 70k Instagram followers and an international mass of dedicated Neighbours fans—it’s safe to say Bonnie Anderson has a bright future ahead of her.
