Northern Ireland's Lilla Vargen is off to quite a breathtaking start this year with the release of her new song "Believe Me."

The gorgeous new track arrived Tuesday, clocking in at nearly four minutes of pure magic. Vargen wrote the song over the course of last year, with production from Nick Rayner.

"It was inspired by a friendship that was quite complicated," she says of the new track. "I let that person down before and I was determined not to do it again. The only way I could explain myself, to let them know I was ready to let my guard down, was to put my words down on paper, and post the letter."

"Believe Me" follows her debut Hold On EP, which was released in October.

Hear the song below or on various digital platforms.
