Katie Belle’s new single Bad Dreams is a bold, emotionally tuned declaration one that turns restless nights into powerful art. From the first second, the song balances tension and release: moody synths swirl around a taut rhythm section, and her voice hovers between vulnerability and fierce resolve.
Bad Dreams lays everything bare. Katie confronts her insomnia, the repetitive loops of a mind that won’t rest, and the longing to break free from that cycle. Yet she never sacrifices accessibility for candor. In fact, the production walks a fine line, always pushing forward but never losing grip the groove is clean, polished, yet charged with unresolved energy.
What impresses most is how Katie delivers every line with a lived-in tone. You don’t hear a performance so much as you feel someone who has inhabited the words. In the chorus, she finds that sweet spot where melody and meaning merge. There is restraint, but also boldness in how she lets the track breathe.
As a single that introduces her upcoming EP People Pleaser, Bad Dreams accomplishes exactly what she must: it draws you in, forces you to stay, and leaves you leaning forward. This is not just a pop track it’s a haunting, hopeful showcase for an artist who’s ready to claim her space.
