AV. announces the release of her second EP titled “Made Of Stone” which touches upon topics unresolved from her debut EP “Guess I’m A Ghost”. The impending EP finishes the duology that is based around overcoming trauma. Set to be released on January 13th, 2023, this sequel EP is centered around self-growth and indifference, which was a critical part of AV.’s life whilst writing this project. In her final moments of high school, AV. searches to find her true identity succeeding trauma.

The title track “Made Of Stone” illustrates the perspective of a young adult finding herself after having survived a traumatic experience. As the chorus goes, “Lately I’ve embraced the changes, so I went out and saved me, cause I once was a ghost, but now I’m made of stone” AV. manifests this viewpoint by describing someone who was once considered vulnerable to becoming indestructible.

AV. also touches upon how her trauma has impacted her in relationships. One song in particular, “Maddening Lullabies”, describes this with vivid lyrics like, “Reluctance fills my mind, should I say goodbye, I’ve been hurt before.” However, by the conclusion of the EP in the song “Who I Am”, AV. begins to find herself and sings, “My rusted armor feels brand new, I feel brand new.”

Similar to her recording process for “Guess I’m A Ghost”, AV. collaborated with Josh Preston of Me and The Machine Records in a two-day studio session in Nashville, TN.

AV.’s upcoming single, “Ghost Of You”, will be released on December 2nd, which precedes the unveiling of the “Made Of Stone” EP on January 13th, 2023.
