Her recent single, “We Hold the Line,” emerged from her powerful experiences at the Freedom Convoy in 2022, reflecting her determination to be a voice for others in her country and beyond.

Scarlett’s mission is simple yet profound: “Just to create.” She believes in the transformative power of music—not just for herself but for those who listen. If her art can evoke emotion, facilitate healing, or spark a moment of connection, then she considers her work successful.

Her latest track, R.E.M., delves into her struggles with sleep paralysis and nightmares. It serves as the first single from her anticipated debut full-length album.

“I wrote Heartbreak walk after coming home from a walk in Peterborough and seeing how far gone my city was. Tent cities, drug addicts in the street etc. When ten years ago this was a charming small retirement city. The first verse is about the one year anniversary of the Convoy and going back to Ottawa for it. The second verse is about the fall of Peterborough and other cities in the same position. Then for the bridge I incorporated ‘Am I the Only One’ by Aaron Lewis.”
