You are currently viewing Song of the Week: Valencia James – “Dreamers”

Born in New York, but raised in Sydney, Australia, Valencia James brings us the pop track “Dreamers”.  If any of you have listened to my podcast recently, you know I’m a sucker for anything with the word dream in it. Part of what StarShine Magazine is about is to encourage people to dream, to inspire you, and to maybe be a part of the dreams of the rising stars we feature.

Valencia reveals, “I wrote Dreamers at a time in my life when I was learning how to dream again and believe in dreams that I had forgotten about. It’s kind of that song where I was just like, ‘Why can’t I do all the things that I want to?’ I had just come out of a period of depression about my future and this was my song … let’s all just start dreaming again and going for what we want in life”.

She gets us!

Valencia’s gorgeous vocals, empowering lyrics and uplifting beat is reminiscent of a softer, female version of a Thirty Seconds to Mars anthem.  Side note: A duet between Valencia and Jared Leto would be amazing!
