Montreal-based singer Shay Lia has released a stunning new track "Blue," which was produced by fellow Canadian acts Kaytranada and BadBadNotGood. 

Kaytranada and Lia previously worked together on "Leave Me Alone," the lead single for the former's 99.9%, which was among Variance's 50 Best Albums of 2016. But this marks the first time Lia has teamed up with BadBadNotGood.

The Djiboutian-French songstress says the new song is reflective of "raw emotions buried deep in my soul to heal some wounds," calling the writing process "the best way to externalize unconscious emotions or feelings that may have been shut down for too long.’
