Maria Solena - 'Open Your Eyes'

After drawing quiet acclaim with 'The Dream' earlier this year, Vancouver-based artist Maria Solena returns with 'Open Your Eyes', a track that deepens her palette while staying rooted in the emotive clarity that’s fast becoming her trademark.

Built around a gauzy bed of mellow instrumentation, the track unfurls like smoke curling in golden-hour sunlight. Solena’s gentle yet resolute voice floats over the mix with effortless grace. There’s something disarmingly intimate about her delivery, the kind that draws you in rather than holds you at arm’s length.

'Open Your Eyes' leans into stillness, allowing each note and phrase to breathe. The production is subtle but rich with swelling grooves, understated percussion, and soft melodic turns that reward close listening.

With this release, Solena is carving out a space of her own, one that values subtlety over spectacle and emotional honesty over artifice. It’s a rare thing to find an artist who can hold a room with little more than breath and melody. Maria Solena does just that, and 'Open Your Eyes' is yet another quiet triumph in a growing catalogue of introspective gems.
