Jenna Lotti is a singer-songwriter unafraid to expose her stories in her lyrics. Her venture into songwriting began as a way for her to cope with her emotions- using her own words from old poems she wrote as a teenager to turn them into melodies. She’s open about her experience with her mental health, and can act as a helping hand for those with similar struggles by showing an audience that they aren’t alone. You may recognize her from opening for Dan + Shay, her feature in Billboard, or her spot on NBC’s Songland.
“Death of a Perfectionist” is a raw ballad that showcases Jenna’s inner workings and fears. This track can best be described as Jenna Lotti’s sigh of relief. In this song, she puts her cards on the table and displays her anxieties that she’s swearing off. The outro of the song is where the production builds, which mirrors the feeling of breaking free from insecurities and choosing to make a change. Lotti’s breathtaking, airy vocals above the piano melody makes this track feel honest, and hauntingly bittersweet.
