Written alongside Grammy-winning ballad master Walter Afanasieff, Stroll details, “Walter and I were talking about moments when I’ve felt unheard or when my values felt compromised. We explored the idea of what it’s like to stand your ground while everything around you feels like it’s unraveling.” “I Stood My Ground” follows previously released track, “You’re OK,” of which Building Your Own Nashville describes, “an acoustic gem that excels in its simplicity… this song’s gentle melody offers comfort in the same way the lyrics do.” Watch official video HERE. Stroll wrote over seventy songs, paring them down to a dozen which would become Bloom in the Break. She recorded in studios around the world with collaborators including Swagg R’Celious (Babyface, H.E.R.), Kevin Bard (Andy Grammer, Dan + Shay), and Afanasieff. The album reflects a full spectrum portrait of Stroll’s past experiences and how it helped her to get where she is now. Stroll hopes listeners will find the same comfort and healing in the album as she did while creating it. “I wanted people to be able to relate to it in their own ways, and in their own struggles,” she details. “Your problem is your problem, but when you’re standing up against a wall, we’re all facing that same wall. That was my North Star.” Of the album’s title, she describes, “I pictured something beautiful—literally the most beautiful flower blooming through breaking glass. Because life’s obstacles create who we are, which is where beauty lies—in all our imperfections. It’s how we grow to become the people we are.” Born and raised in Montreal, Stroll wrote her first song at seven years old. She released her debut single “Run” in 2023, and 2024 found Stroll releasing several singles, including “Thin Air,” “Water Over Sand” and more. Artists that inspire Stroll include Lana Del Rey, Billie Eilish, Whitney Houston, Barbara Streisand, and Adele, also drawing inspiration and meaning behind many of her songs from a deep love of her family and husband, Olympic medalist Scotty James.
