10-year-old viral internet sensation Harper has dropped her debut single, “Falling,” and announced signing with independent label Pale Chord in partnership with Rise Records. Her first original release comes accompanied by an official music video.
Harper shot to internet stardom when she released a one-take vocal cover of SPIRITBOX’s breakout hit, “Holy Roller” in summer 2021, clocking 222,000 YouTube views and media accolades from the likes of Kerrang!, Loudwire, Rock Sound, Revolver and more. She gained millions of new fans when she auditioned for NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” with the same song in June 2022, garnering a further 1.6 million YouTube views and wowing both the judges and the audience with her vocal prowess. She also got to perform “Holy Roller” with SPIRITBOX at the band’s recent sold-out show in London.
Speaking on the release of her first-ever single, Harper says: ” ‘Falling’ was written and produced with the help of Chris Wiseman (SHADOW OF INTENT and CURRENTS) and Ben Lumber (ACRES). It was written shortly after my cover of ‘Holy Roller’. This was the first creative process and songwriting process I’ve been a part of, so it was super fun to create something I can call my own.”
Harper comments about SPIRITBOX: “SPIRITBOX became my favourite band as soon as I heard them and they’ve shown nothing but love and support for me since day one. They really are some of the kindest humans I’ve ever met! Getting to perform with them in London was a dream come true and a memory I will cherish and be forever grateful for.
And she adds on her signing with Pale Chord: “I am so excited to be working with Pale Chord for my debut single. The label have been nothing short of amazing to me and I’m excited to make some magic with them!”
