MUMBAI: Scandinavian songstress Skott has shared a brand new track titled Remain, the flipside to her current single Mermaid.  The track received its worlwide premiere on Zane Lowe’s Beats one show and is available in the United States via RCA Records.

Remain was written from a place of heartbreak and acceptance, the singer explains says, "I fell madly in love when I was 13, and for five years we were inseparable. But sometimes we’re powerless against change this song is about the pain of growing apart, and accepting that sometimes we have to leave something behind in order to move forward.  How do you tell that to someone, when it’s already hard enough to accept it yourself?”

Side by side, Mermaid and Remain showcase the scintillating, other worldly sound of this innovative young Scandinavian musician. Producing her finest work to date, Skott boldly resets the bar for the engrossing leftfield pop that she’s so quickly become renowned for. With each new track, the mystery shrouded in Skott’s initial introduction sheds another layer to welcome one of the most exciting young artists of recent years.

Remain follows previous releases, including Mermaid, Glitter and Gloss, Lack of Emotion, Amelia, Wolf and her stunning debut single from last summer, Porcelain which snagged a coveted slot on the official FIFA 17 soundtrack. Watch the Zhang and Knight directed video for Glitter and Gloss.  

After dazzling crowds at SXSW in March, and with sold out shows in both LA and New York already under her belt, the enchanting singer and songwriter Skott recently returned to North America, playing three prestigious summer festivas including Wayhome, Lollapaloozaand Osheaga. In addition to these festival dates, the captivating singer and songwriter supported Phantogram for two special US shows. She is slated to hit the road with MØ this fall, playing several European dates. 
Across the Atlantic, Skott has been busy working on new material set for release throughout the year, along with a highly anticipated full-length album, expected in 2018.

Since making her debut last year, Skott has been steadily racking up support online, topping HypeMachine’s ‘Most Blogged’ chart numerous times, with her songs popping up on several Spotify New Music Friday playlists and massive radio support from the likes of Annie Mac (Radio 1), Zane Lowe (Beats1) and KCRW (Jason Kramer). Described as 'mesmerizing' by The FADER, ‘menacing and magical’ by Noisey and definitely worth paying attention to by Pigeons and Planes, Skott has even received high profile endorsements on Twitter from both Katy Perry and Lorde. Most recently VEVO included the Swedish singer in their Ones to Watch 2017 list.
