After the success of her radio-charting singles “Never Have I Ever” (#6 Australia) and “Dirt” (#16 Australia), Elyse Saunders returns with one of her most personal releases yet. “Mending Heart” embraces the raw, reflective journey of picking up the pieces after heartbreak. The award-winning Canadian-Nashville artist continues to build a catalogue of emotionally resonant and compelling country, and with its infectious melody, soulful vocals, and diary-like lyrics, “Mending Heart” is striking a chord with listeners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Produced by award-nominated producer Adam Newcomb, “Mending Heart” channels the emotional depth and relatability of artists like Megan Moroney and Kelsea Ballerini, blending sliding steel guitar with a modern pulse. The track sparked industry buzz ahead of its release, earning a spotlight premiere on Nashville’s digital outlet The Women of Country, known for featuring top rising and established female stars in country music. Since then, the single has received major support on SiriusXM’s Top of the Country radio chart, amassed over half a million global streams, and marked Elyse’s digital Billboard debut on the iconic Nashville Sign-further cementing her growing presence in Music City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We have songs about falling in love and songs about heartbreak, but I wanted to write about the middle-that emotional, freeing place where you’re finally starting to pick yourself back up, knowing something better is ahead. I really poured myself into this one, especially in the studio. I love making songs that are fun and full of energy, but it’s just as important for me to create music that can heal others the way it heals me. “<\/p>\n\n\n\n
