Everything You Wanted to Know About ‘FALLING 4 SOMEBODY’ Singer-Songwriter NERIAH

We're barely a month into 2023, but rising alt-pop singer-songwriter NERIAH is already making some big waves this year—and she's not slowing down anytime soon.

After dropping the soulfully anthemic "Puppet on a String" in January, she shared her latest '80s synth-infused single, "FALLING 4 SOMEBODY," last week. It's all building up to her upcoming EP, No One Cries Forever, which comes out on March 17, but that's not all we're looking forward to, because she's also planning to drop her debut album sometime this year. We absolutely cannot get enough of NERIAH's cool girl vibes and infectious songwriting, and if you love her, too, keep scrolling to discover everything she shared about herself as our latest Woman Crush Wednesday.
