California-based singer-songwriter NERIAH has made an impressive leap from a young vlogger to a globally recognized artist. Her rise to fame took a significant step forward when she joined Madison Beer on tour last year, performing in front of larger audiences and gaining exposure to a whole new fanbase.
Over the past few years, NERIAH has released multiple albums, EPs, and singles, each exploring different facets of her musical identity. Her latest single, “Gone Girl,” serves as a perfect example of her ability to craft emotive, relatable music. The synth-pop track, with its pulsating bassline, punchy drums, and catchy melodies, offers a powerful reflection of a dark and addictive heartbreak.
“Gone Girl” came from a raw moment of pure emotion, as NERIAH herself shares:
“I had just had a huge fight with my boyfriend, and all I could think about was how much I loved the movie. The way it captures betrayal, power, and control felt too real in that moment. I wanted to channel that energy into a song that wasn’t just about heartbreak, but about reclaiming the narrative. It’s for anyone who’s ever been pushed too far and decided to flip the script.”
The song’s lyrics provide a cathartic release of frustration and empowerment, echoing complex feelings of betrayal and the intense desire to regain control in the aftermath of heartbreak.
Now, NERIAH is carving her own path with her first headlining tour, “The Unfinished Business Tour.” The tour is a major milestone in her career, showcasing her growth as an artist and deepening the connection between her music and her fans.
