Kim Izzard – One Way to Live

Kim Izzard thrills with the anthemic, exciting pop rock track ‘One Way to Live’!

The UK based pop singer/songwriter teamed with a talented troupe of musicians way back in 2021, when the Covid lockdown was just easing up, to deliver this power-packed rock single, ‘One Way to Live’ that empowers listeners to own their lives!

Opening onto hypnotic guitars, the track flows into engaging rock arrangements. Kim sings with remarkable restraint and emotion as she declares, ‘Im out to Live, Im Out to live life…..’. Delivered along to driving rhythms and drums, her voice evokes a sense of hope and determination to not just survive through the tough times, but to thrive.

With close to 90K lifetime streams on Spotify and played across music platforms in the US and UK, ‘One Way to Live’ is clearly resonating with listeners in a real way.

The chorus explodes to life with exciting rock riffs, crashing drums and Kim’s compelling melodic vocals. The lyrics are simple, honest and built upon on strong self-affirming statements. The kind you tell yourself and the person you love when you realise what’s really important in this life. This isin’t hope and positivity for the sake of it. Its a thrilling discovery of the resilience of human spirit to keep going, to keep loving, to keep living, no matter the cost.

Musically, ‘One Way to Live’ hits that oh so sweet spot that engages pop and rock listeners alike. Think of great female-led bands like No Doubt and Evanescence. A strong lead vocal presence backed by sharp, intelligent rock musicianship. It makes for a great, uplifting listen, no doubt!
