Eloise Rayner: From collaboration to solo debut with 'Can You Still Feel Me Loving You?'

Eloise Rayner is a singer and songwriter from Sydney who last year released the song ‘Fallin’ for a Cowboy’ with Zara Lindeman after the pair met at the Academy of Country Music. Rayner now has a single of her own and on her own to release, ‘Can You Still Feel Me Loving You?’.During our recent interview Rayner revealed that she first thought up the initial melody and chorus lyrics for her new song during a dream - and that she has a habit of dreaming snippets of songs which she wakes up and records in her phone. Rayner took the song to producer Simon Johnson, who also produced 'her previous hit collaboration 'Fallin' for a Cowboy'.Although this is Rayner's first solo single, she has been actively writing for a while, participating in Gina Jeffreys's weekly writing co-sessions which include Kylie Gale (who I called Kylie Ryan - sorry, Kylie!) and Max Jackson. She's also received vocal coaching from Lyn Bowtell, the Director of the Academy. Rayner's dedication to developing herself as a singer and songwriter while staying true to the music that shaped her - including that of Missy Higgins and Kasey Chambers - has resulted in a mature, emotional song in 'Can You Still Feel Me Loving You?' and indicates that there will be more rich music to come from this rising star.During the interview Rayner mentions a Spotify playlist she has created, 'songs that stole my heart' - it's a great playlist and you can find it here.For more about Eloise Rayner: https://linktr.ee/eloiseraynerListen to 'Can You Still Feel Me Loving You?’ on Apple MusicListen to 'Can You Still Feel Me Loving You?’ on SpotifyFollow Sunburnt Country Music on InstagramFollow Sunburnt Country Music on Facebook Sunburnt Country Music website For more Sunburnt Country Music:InstagramFacebook YouTubewebsite Substack Hosted on Acast.
