Miya Folick debuts new track 'Malibu Barbie'

Miya Folick is back with a topical new track called ‘Malibu Barbie’, which centres around the impact of society’s unrealistic expectations on yourself.

Armed with a hypnotic melody, ‘Malibu Barbie’ is a dreamy and relatable release from Miya. The thought-provoking lyrics and the singer-songwriter’s unique vocal take centre stage and it’s hard not to be completely captivated by Miya’s talent.

Speaking about the track, Miya said: “‘Malibu Barbie’ is about my exploration of what being a woman means to me—it’s a longing for an ideal. It’s realizing that I can go to an extreme in pursuit of physical perfection, look around, and realize that I haven’t changed. I am still longing and seeking something more. Who I am is not a place at which I can arrive.”

‘Malibu Barbie’ marks Miya’s first release since her critically acclaimed debut album, Premonitions. The album, which was released last year, garnered positive reviews from numerous outlets, with Miya performing the songs throughout her headline North American tour and during support slots with Pale Waves and Sunflower Bean.
