Carson Ferris is back with another brilliant release. This time, the 14-year-old pop prodigy is tackling the universal struggle of 'FOMO' with his latest single – and trust us, it's a stellar single well worth the hype.
Inspired by his own experiences navigating the music industry while still a teenager, 'FOMO' dives into the sacrifices Ferris has made in pursuit of his dreams. As he puts it himself, “‘FOMO’ is a song about the fear of missing out. It's a song about priorities, making decisions, and figuring out what matters most to you and choosing that, even if it means missing out on other things.”
For Ferris, that means swapping typical teenage shenanigans for studio sessions and songwriting. He's had to ditch the parties, the video games, and just hanging out with friends to focus on honing his craft. But judging by the quality of 'FOMO', it seems like he's made the right call.
Produced by his long-time mentor MYKYL, the track is a dynamic blend of pop, rock, and electronic influences. It kicks off with an inviting guitar intro that perfectly complements Ferris's smooth vocals. As the song progresses, vibrant pop beats and soaring melodies weave their way into the mix, creating a soundscape that's both catchy and emotionally resonant. The infectious hook is guaranteed to get stuck in your head, showcasing Ferris's impressive vocal range and the song's undeniable energy.
Even at just 14, Ferris has already accomplished a lot. He was a finalist in the International Acoustic Music Awards in 2023, sang alongside Donny Osmond in Las Vegas, performed the national anthem for the Utah Jazz, and even collaborated with Trinidad Cordoba on the track 'Can't Be Without You'. With influences ranging from Journey to Ed Sheeran, Ferris is carving out his own unique space in the music scene.
'FOMO' is another impressive addition to his growing discography, demonstrating a level of maturity and musicality that defies his age. It's an anthem for anyone who has ever had to make tough choices in pursuit of their passions. So whether you're a teenager trying to figure out your place in the world or an adult reflecting on the road not taken, 'FOMO' is a relatable and undeniably catchy track that deserves a spot on your playlist.
Available to stream everywhere now, this is Carson Ferris's tenth single, and if it's anything to go by, he's only just getting started.
