LA-based grunge-pop artist ALAENA has released her new track, I Wanna, a follow-up to “Paranoid,” which was released in April.

“I Wanna” is a song about frustrating love. It is about the vicious cycle of mixed signals between two lovers. The strength and weakness of not receiving what you know you want. I wrote ‘I Wanna’ to express what I could never say to the guy I had been seeing off and on for years. Despite our relationship together, he never wanted to admit to committing,”explains ALAENA. It was like one week we were together all the time and the next week I’d see him one day out with someone else- resulting in me doing the same thing to him because I didn’t want to seem like I was too available. We’d lose touch, I’d get over it then somehow we’d ALWAYS end up back together doing the same exact shit. Love can be confusing and can sometimes feel like a sign of weakness when you go through situations like mine but I encourage all females (and males) if they go through this same kind of situation, like I have, to be strong and powerful and don’t let the mixed signals drag you along like I had let them to me!”

I Wanna was written by ALAENA and produced by Grammy-winning Khris Lorenz.

Alaena left the internationally known death metal band to pursue her solo career. After heading to LA and meeting Grammy winning producer Khris Lorenz, they coined the genre “grunge-pop”. She continued to produce & write her music independently with the guidance of Lorenz, as well as direct and edit her music videos. With over 35k Instagram followers and various mentions about her music & style (referred to as a Living Andy Warhol Painting) in publications such as

PAPER, Wonderland, Pop Dust & PopCrave, her social media engagement continues to draw in new fans (the ATEAM.)
