A beautiful component for every young girl growing up is the connection she makes with other girls and women. This is reflected in the “girls’ night out” that is commonly played upon in modern media, for good reason! Who doesn’t love a girls’ night out? Anna Dahl presents her own interpretation of this concept in her song “Top Shelf”. This song tells the story of a night out with an empowering twist, emphasizing standards and teaching a lesson to men on how to approach ladies and teaching a lesson to women on knowing their value.
Immediately the song begins with upbeat guitars and drums. This combined with the clear and beautiful vocals create a sense of small-town living that gives a distinctive experience for those familiar with it. There is intentionality behind each musical direction Dahl decides to take, creating a beauty in the familiarity. The groove makes audiences want to dance and supports the storytelling within the song. Chord changes combined with the guitar melody contribute to the attitude of a playful and homey love-song while still managing to be empowering. On top of this, the major key is bound to lift spirits and excite listeners everywhere.
Anna Dahl is an artist from southern Wisconsin who began her musical journey at the age of three by playing piano. By the time she was a teen, she was already writing her own songs and playing guitar. She earned her Music Business degree in Ausburg University while working for LoMax Records. Even though she loved music, she found it hard to balance her art with her many life demands. The global pandemic proved to be a blessing in disguise, and she is now releasing music again. Her art carries a lot of love and passion, and it is clear she will be a major name in the modern music industry.
