Louder Than The Music

Fourteen-year-old pop artist Scarlett Sullivan possesses a songwriting ability far beyond her years. Following the success of her high-energy debut single, ‘Obvious,’ which accumulated over 24,000 streams on Spotify alone, the Mississippi-based singer-songwriter continues to showcase her captivating vocals and vulnerable storytelling with her beautifully uplifting release, ‘Iron Shield.’

Inspired by her sister’s journey after being diagnosed with ALL (Leukemia), the single navigates Scarlett’s feelings about her sister's diagnosis and reflects on her love for family and faith in God. Written during the summer of 2020 when she was just eleven years old, the track further demonstrates the young songwriter’s impressive ability to connect with and inspire listeners from all walks of life. Opening with a delicate mix of guitar, piano, and strings, the track grows into a powerful chorus with Scarlett’s heartful vocals in the spotlight.

Sharing more behind the song’s themes, Scarlett explains, ‘Iron Shield is about hope, strength, and faith.’
