Bea Elmy Martin returns with “Written On Me,” a single that captures the beauty of falling in love and becoming deeply intertwined with someone over time.
Bea Elmy Martin continues to shape her place in the UK alternative scene. With her latest single “Written On Me,” she turns to a more intimate theme—exploring love, closeness, and how someone can gradually become part of who you are.
“Written On Me” captures the experience of falling in love and growing deeply connected over time. She shares that she wrote the single at home one night. She went in without much of a plan, guided only by a feeling she couldn’t shake. Then, she started experimenting with a few ideas, and the song came together naturally. It never felt forced, which is why it turned into such an honest track.
Because of this, the track carries a strong sense of ease and openness. It leans into quiet, reflective moments. As it progresses, “Written On Me” slowly builds, drawing listeners in with its soft, intimate mood and emotional pull.
Turning Emotion Into Sound
Born and raised in London, Bea Elmy Martin shapes her sound with emotional precision. She blends ethereal vocals, orchestral intimacy, and brooding electronics. Early on, she drew inspiration from classic soul artists like Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, and Donny Hathaway. As a result, she developed a strong sense of melody and feeling.
Moreover, she also started using songwriting to process life, love, and loss from a young age. In her view, it works like a journal. It helps her turn overwhelming emotions into something more tangible. Because of that, moments of beauty, pain, and connection come through naturally in her music.
After her 2021 debut “Blue Escape,” Bea gained early BBC support. From there, she began a focused creative partnership with Dominick J Goldsmith. This led to Under The Yew (Vol. 1) in 2025, which explores themes of loss and healing. She then continued that direction with Vol. 2. It features tracks like “Lost,” “Born To Fly,” “Unscarred,” and “Anouk,” while building toward the upcoming album, Under The Yew (Vol. 2).
For Bea, Under The Yew (Vol. 2) feels like a personal excavation. In turn, it transforms loss into something lighter and more hopeful. Each track marks a step toward resilience. Sonically, the project draws comparisons to Air, Portishead, Billie Marten, and Adrianne Lenker. Still, it remains rooted in her own emotional clarity.
With a devoted and steadily growing following, Bea Elmy Martin continues to stand out. Overall, she remains one of the scene’s most emotionally rich voices, and Under The Yew (Vol. 2) marks her next step forward.
