Meg Donnelly has released her long-awaited EP ‘dying art’ – a project that marks a fearless leap forward in both sound and self-expression. The nine-track collection is a declaration of forward-thinking, genre-defying exploration of heartbreak, reinvention, and identity.
Leading the charge is “strangers,” the EP’s centerpiece and emotional heartbeat. With its haunting production and lyrical gut-punches, the track captures the quiet devastation of watching someone you once loved become unrecognisable. It’s a fitting anthem for an EP that thrives on honest storytelling and sonic evolution. “strangers” arrives with a stylised performance video that’s part of Donnelly’s surreal “Audition Tapes” visual series – mini-films where she embodies hyper-real versions of herself, confronting the industry’s obsession with reinvention and identity.
Meg’s new musical chapter builds on the momentum of her recent mainstream surge, including a standout run as Coral on The Masked Singer, where she finished as a Top 3 finalist. Her showstopping vocals on songs like “Sk8er Boi,” “Ain’t It Fun,” and “Mad World” proved she’s more than just a triple threat—she’s an artist with staying power and presence.
While audiences eagerly await her return to the screen in ZOMBIES 4: Dawn of the Vampires (airing globally July 11 on Disney+), dying art shifts the spotlight firmly to Donnelly’s music. Co-produced by Tenroc with creative contributions from Jon Bellion, the EP is steeped in rich sonic layers – retro-pop grooves, alternative rock grit, shimmering synths, and even hints of yacht rock. It’s eclectic but cohesive, polished yet deeply personal.
Meg’s dying art delivers a full artistic statement; it’s a story of self-reclamation, of peeling back the curtain to show the complexities behind the performer. And as she takes the reins not only as a musician but also as an executive producer on her latest film, one thing is clear: Meg Donnelly is done playing it safe. She’s building a world of her own – and inviting us into the most honest version of herself yet.
