Ava Della Pietra: Last News

“What day it will be / when I finally feel free / from what others assume,” sings Ava Della Pietra at the start of her new song, “power of you.” The track, premiering here on HollywoodLife, sees the 16-year-old singer-songwriter and Broadway sensation grapple with the pressures of others’ expectations, tackling such mature themes with wisdom beyond her years. “Will I give up / or can I live up / to the power of you,” she sings in the chorus, her heavenly voice soaring along with the song’s dreamy production. Though “power of you” is about handling anxiety and stress of other’s opinions and influences, it acts as a reassuring hand on the shoulder, one that tells you that ultimately, it’s OK to go your way so long as you believe in yourself.
