Audrey Time


Audrey Time

Korean-American R&B vocalist, Audrey, unveils her latest release, 'Time' alongside the official music video. The mesmerizing visual follows Audrey on a journey through the grimy streets of Hollywood, while having different interactions with would-be's and faded stars. It is a dreamlike and abstract depiction of the timeless saying, 'fake it will you make it.' 'Time' was produced and co-written with manager/producer, Anwar Sawyer . The video was directed by Grammy-nominated director Emma Westenberg ('PYNK' by Janelle Monae).

Audrey explains, "'Time' is a foster home for imaginary kids or people – a holding place for souls that went through life procrastinating and holding out on their dreams." She adds, "I want to see female artists lead creatively, so working with Emma was such a privilege."

Audrey spins the fictional tale of 'Time' with a series of vibrant characters who express the narrative overtop a hypnotizing bassline, while her silky vocal paints the story well beyond the first dimension.

For R&B powerhouse Audrey, pushing boundaries is the name of the game. Setting the precedent as one of the first female Korean-American R&B acts breaking into mainstream culture, she leads with a commitment to creativity and imagination. The 20-year-old New Jersey-native was accepted to the Clive Davis Institute and enrolled in NYU where she would go to class during the day, and record music until the early hours of the morning. She soon made the decision to take a gap year and focus solely on her career, and quickly inked a deal with Arista Records, the label originally started by Clive Davis himself. Audrey previously released 'Soufflé ' and 'Party' to critical acclaim along with powerful music videos.

A welcomed ambassador for her culture and gender, Audrey hangs her hat on the value of her work first while embracing the responsibility of representing Korean-Americans, and women in pop music, regardless of the background.

"My identity as a Korean-American is an important part of who I am. Normalizing that energy and culture is really what's important to me. For the first time, push a face like mine into the mainstream, while never comprising my creativity."

Audrey will release new music each month throughout the rest of the year, with an EP to come in 2020.
