Taste Test: Saffron A displays tremendous ‘Resilience’ after sexual assault

Alt-folk newcomer shares her story of sexual assault and journey to the mountaintop in her new video.

Welcome to Taste Test, a song/video review series of SubmitHub-only gemstones

There are few human acts as barbaric as sexual assault. #MeToo and #TimesUp have pulled back the curtain on our society, and no longer are survivors ashamed. While the journey remains one of true bravery and often takes nothing but time, more and more individuals are stepping out into the light to share their stories. Alt-folk rising star Saffron A doesn’t hold back in illustrating her trek through misery, anger, denial and finally into renewal of body, mind and spirit with her new song. On “Resilience,” paired with a raw, viscerally-charged visual, she lets the words fall out of her soul, and her words crack and falter in the pain that lingers on her weary, yet warrior-like, spirit. “I will find my way back to the woman that I was,” she cries out, coming to terms with her assault but not letting it define her. Frankly, Saffron A delivers a truly affecting performance that’ll rattle you to your core.

“Resilience” serves as the title cut to her new EP, out everywhere now.
