So Where To Today?

Fronted by singer/songwriter Hannah Beeghly, Denver-based mlady makes emotionally indulgent dreamy pop. First formed in 2018 with guitarist Austin Bourdon, mlady began as a vehicle for Beeghly’s songwriting - catchy melodies and reflective lyrics that deal with her attempts to process and understand her own mental health. “Growing up a pastor’s kid in a strict, religious household was difficult for me and I’m still constantly fighting a penchant for black and white thinking, struggling to embrace feelings I wasn’t allowed to openly feel, and dealing with a lot of accompanying guilt. Being an Asian-American in a community that didn’t value differences or diversity really added to my loneliness, and that feeling of otherness has fueled my desire to find belonging in songwriting and music.”
