Winifred – ‘Blue Fire’
The creative process behind the ‘Blue Fire’ video was an exciting one-night shoot in Brisbane, directed by Luis Campbell, showcasing Winifred’s commitment to collaborating with local talent.
Winifred shared the story behind her upcoming single ‘Blue Fire’. “I wrote Blue Fire as a mood piece. To me it’s a sensory-inspired phrase. It’s a reflection on desire and self awareness. When your desire is just out of reach, maybe in some rare cases, that’s where it’s meant to stay,” said Winifred.
She further said, “Blue Fire began with me recording top line and chord ideas in my home studio in Townsville, and came full circle down in Melbourne with Jackson McRae. My aim was for the production to feel simultaneously ethereal and gritty while remaining kind of understated throughout. Low-key bedroom bop energy.”
This release follows Winifred’s recent success with ‘Orbit’, a collaboration with electronic musician Tutara Peak, which garnered over 113k streams in under a month. Additionally, ‘Orbit’ received editorial and radio support from various platforms, including Spotify’s Fresh Finds.
