Bailey Spinn – critical

Emerging rock powerhouse Bailey Spinn has returned with a fiery new single, “critical”, out today via AWAL.

Produced and co-written with Erik Ron (Panic! At The Disco, Bush, Set It Off, Black Veil Brides), the track unleashes a darker, heavier side of Bailey’s sound. “critical” is a high-voltage song that feels like Gen Z’s answer to hard rock – a raw confession of self-destruction, isolation, and the fight to pull yourself back from the edge.

“critical” follows Bailey’s latest release from earlier this year, “fear of going out”, which struck a chord with fans and press alike for its relatable exploration of anxiety and insecurity amongst Gen Z. Together, the two tracks highlight Bailey’s evolution into a bolder, more emotionally charged space within the rock landscape.

With 20M+ followers and billions of views on her content, Bailey is proving why she’s one of the scene’s most promising voices. In addition to amassing a dedicated online following, her breakout debut album loser (March 2025) garnered millions of streams, including 11M+ alone on standout track “happy ending.” In addition to attending Billboard’s Women in Music and Variety’s Power of Young Hollywood events, Bailey was also recently named one of People Magazine’s Emerging Artists to watch earlier this fall.

Bailey is currently in the studio working with some of the genre’s biggest collaborators. More new music is due out in 2026.
