Morgan Saint doesn’t just write songs—she builds worlds, and her latest single “Kiss” is an electric invitation to step inside. The track, a spark of ecstatic anticipation, captures that dizzying moment right before a first kiss, the kind of breathless rush that makes time stop. With beats that snap like static electricity and guitars that shimmer like light on water, Saint crafts a sonic palette that feels as fresh and effervescent as new love itself. Her breathy, understated vocals hover over the production, pulling you in closer until you’re singing along with her: “I know we’re gonna kiss.”

The new track is a follow up to her previous single, ‘Hope you find what you’re looking for,’ released earlier this year.

“Kiss is about the excitement of a new love. I wanted the song to capture how addicting and sunny it feels to fall for someone – the tension and build up before the first kiss and the magic in every little touch. I wrote, produced and engineered this song with my wife, which makes it all the more special and true.” – Morgan Saint

The New York-born alt-pop wunderkind has always played with contrasts. Her songs live at the intersection of vulnerability and boldness, fragility and strength, a grayscale world suddenly awash with colour.

Her forthcoming debut album, Out Of The Blue, promises to amplify her artistry to new heights. The album, set for release on 14 February 2025, is self-produced and fiercely independent—a testament to her singular vision. Whether you’re losing yourself on the dancefloor or swaying alone in your bedroom, Saint’s music feels personal, yet cinematic, as though it was made for you and you alone.

With Out Of The Blue, Morgan Saint will surely cement herself as a force in alt-pop—fearlessly vulnerable, endlessly creative, and unshakabley vital. “Kiss” is just the beginning, a glittering door cracked open to a world of Saint’s own making, and fans would be wise to step through.

Saint released her debut EP, 17 HERO, in 2017 and maintained her momentum with follow up EP’s ALIEN (2018) and HELP (2020). She collaborates with her wife, Carley Ridersleeve. Together, they power every aspect of its creation—from producing the music to helming the creative, visuals, photos and artwork.
