Rising alt-pop artist Peyton Shay is breaking new ground with her seductive single 'Twisted Saint,' which landed a key sync placement in Apple TV+'s hit series, Shrinking.
Produced by Adam Castilla (The Colourist), Peyton Shay’s ‘Twisted Saint’ delves into the dark allure of toxic relationships, exploring the magnetic pull we feel toward someone even when we know they’re bad for us. “It’s about the tension of ignoring the red flags, even when love gets complicated,” she says. The song’s left-of-center pop production pairs seamlessly with her sharp, evocative lyrics, capturing the push-pull of self-destructive desire.
Peyton is set also to release a stripped-down version of the song, offering a more intimate, raw take on its emotional depth. It’s the lead single from her upcoming Daydream Police EP, which will also include hotly anticipated tracks like ‘Savior Complex,’ ‘Lonely Chapstick,’ and ‘Dashboard Lights.’
Despite being unsigned, Peyton proves that artistry means than any label. With her breakthrough sync placement, a growing fanbase, and an upcoming US/UK tour, keep an eye on what Peyton Shay does next, as she continues her ascent in the alt-pop scene.
