Rising pop sensation Bailee Madison is back with her latest single, “Chiller.” With its catchy hook, vibrant lyrics,and irresistible beat, "Chiller" is poised to dominate airwaves and playlists everywhere. Out today, fans can pre-save/pre-add the song here.
Written by Madison along with her boyfriend, Blake Richardson (frontman of the British-Pop Trio, New Hope Club), and muti-genre hit writer Amy Stroup, “Chiller” sparkles with production by Richardson.
"'Chiller' was written about two months ago and it started with a conversation with my boyfriend Blake Richardson, who is also producing and writing this project with me,” said Madison. “We were chatting about some weird situations that I have been in lately that left an un-chill taste in my mouth. From random guys whistling to me and my girlfriends, to hands just a little too low during pictures with strangers, we wanted to write a song that didn’t take itself too seriously but had the underlying message of embracing your body, having the freedom to exist in utter confidence and unapologetic love for ourselves at all times. We should never have to feel uncomfortable, so to relay the uncomfortableness that comes with these situations onto the song, we focused on making the production around the lyrics feel almost daunting and off-centered at times.”
On her journey making music, she added, “For me, starting my music journey has been so healing. We rarely go into a session knowing what we are aiming for, and I try not to put myself in a box. Being uncomfortable helps me to grow and have a better understanding of myself. I love using music to push myself out of my comfort zone and to come out with a song like ‘Chiller’ with my amazing collaborators Amy Stroup, Rob Kleiner (track mix & master) and Blake. I think we really surprised ourselves, which is a great feeling. With so much more music to come, I’m so proud to release this song to the world. I hope you all like it.”
“Chiller” follows Madison’s debut song, “Kinda Fun,” which was released in January on Red Van Records. “Exploring music has been a dream of mine for as long as I can remember,” she said and later told People Magazine, “I've been saved by music so many times, and if by any chance I'm able to have that connection with people, that would be such a treat.”
As an in-demand actress, Madison is currently starring in the globally renowned franchise and critically recognized reboot Pretty Little Liars, with season two’s Summer School streaming now. She first gained acclaim in the film Bridge To Terabithia and the physiological war drama Brothers. She’s continued to garner many notable roles, such as Just Go With It, The Strangers: Prey at Night, the fantasy film North Pole, Wizards of Waverly Place, Good Witch, and more. With the 2021 Netflix musical hit A Week Away, she has seamlessly immersed herself into the world of music, a passion that has always been in her heart to pursue.
