About mercury

mercury is the musical project of Nashville-based artist Maddie Kerr, known for her spectral and urgent indie-rock sound that incorporates elements of grunge and shoegaze. Her music is characterized by introspective lyrics that delve into themes of self-doubt and loss, delivered with haunted vocals over impressionistic, swelling guitars. Kerr's songwriting often explores emotional upheaval and the journey of finding clarity and celebrating life. Her recent endeavors include the release of the singles "Justin's Headed Out" and "Faster," with "Justin's Headed Out" being described as a tender alt-rock track about the minutiae of adolescence and freedom. This single follows her 2024 EP "Swarm The Hive Mind" and previous works like "Together We Are One, You And I". mercury has also been actively touring, supporting artists like Flipturn and Arcy Drive.
