Mia Wray – ‘Fake A Smile’

“Fake A Smile’ is described ane of the more tender, introspective moments from Mia’s forthcoming LP, touching on the artist’s ongoing mental health struggles.

“This is more about the mental health side of things, which I have struggled with a lot,” Mia explains. “Especially from being signed to a label and having management, more people invested in the business and the project… I naturally feel the pressure to keep shit together and do the job. Put on the smile. Putting on the smile, doing the show, and then the curtain closes and you’re like, ‘How much longer can I keep doing this for?’”

She continued: “I struggle a lot with body image; I hate the fact that my face and my body is the product, and that I have to sell that. But I’ve accepted that it’s just part of the job… It’s the mental health journey behind being the image and being my own boss; having people who are financially and emotionally invested in my career, trying to keep it together so it works out.”

Mia Wray’s debut album hi, it’s nice to meet me is due to reach our ears on Friday, 14th March 2025
