VANNA PACELLA Finds Strength in Letting Go with New Single “Periphery”

Today I listened to Vanna Pacella’s brand new single “Periphery” and it immediately struck me as one of those rare songs that can shift your entire mood. The Cape Cod based singer songwriter has built a reputation for raw honesty and vocal power, and this track feels like a defining moment in her young but already impressive career.

What stood out first was the stripped back atmosphere that allows her voice to carry the full emotional weight of the story. The performance feels both fragile and unshakably strong at the same time. Listening to it for the first time I could sense the exact moment she describes when pain begins to fade from view. There is no melodrama here, only a quiet liberation that feels deeply relatable.

The lyrics hold nothing back yet are delivered with grace. When she sings of recognizing the truth and choosing to grow instead of clinging to what once was, it lands with the clarity of lived experience. At just 18 she shows a maturity in songwriting that resonates well beyond her years. It is rare to hear someone channel heartbreak into such a poised and empowering anthem.

Hearing “Periphery” today also felt like a glimpse into the next stage of her career. With over 200 shows performed in 2023 and the release of her debut album ‘Listen’ in July 2025, she is clearly stepping into a bigger spotlight. Her earlier work already found traction on streaming platforms but this release feels like a statement that she is ready to reach even further.

For me this song was more than a listen, it was a reminder. It reminded me that freedom comes not when you fight the past but when you finally let it drift out of sight. Vanna Pacella has captured that moment perfectly and turned it into music that will stay with me long after the first play.
