Dyan Valdés rejects toxic masculinity on new single ‘I Remember What You Said’
“…the project situates itself as much of a call to arms as it does a tune.”
– Wonderland
“…sees Valdés playing by her own rules, as always remaining defiantly irregular.” – Under The Radar
For Fans of… St Vincent, Angel Olsen, Anna Calvi
Being released ahead of Valentines Day, I Remember What You Said is an uplifting reminder that the most important relationship we have is the one with ourselves. Dyan’s highly relatable yet cutting lyrics are at the forefront, making the lightness of the musicality the perfect contrast. Written as an ode to anyone who has been affected by an abusive relationship of any kind, with this song Dyan wants to celebrate inner strength and our ability to decide for ourselves who to be and to love ourselves unconditionally.
