New Music Friday: SydneyRay

SydneyRay’s debut single, “Big,” premieres today, and it’s a catchy, heartfelt pop song that will have you singing along in no time.

A native of Long Island, New York, SydneyRay was diasgnosed with Crohn’s Disease when she was just 11. Music provided an escape from all the medical tests and treatments, and it kept her motivated. She began writing lyrics to help her face the challenges that arise from having a lifelong illness. So, with this brand-new single, “Big,” she is hoping to inspire and empower others who are facing their own challenges.

Once you hear “Big,” you will, like us, be eagerly waiting to see what SydneyRay has coming up next!

 

Check out “Big” on iTunes now and follow her on Instagram.
