Gabi Sklar delivers a sonic gem with her latest release, “Miami,” a track that pulls listeners into the exhilarating highs and crushing lows of a night in the city that never truly sleeps. Instead of leaning into predictable dance beats, Sklar crafts a mesmerizing soundscape with sweeping cinematic strings, lush instrumentation, and an intoxicating rhythm that mimics the rush of the nightlife.
From the moment the song begins, Miami feels like a hazy dream, where neon lights blur into the ocean breeze and every decision feels like a thrill—until reality hits. The track’s production builds on an atmospheric tension, a sonic representation of that bittersweet space between euphoria and heartbreak. It’s a deeply immersive listening experience, bringing to life the pulse of the city, its secrets, and the fleeting nature of nights that feel like they’ll last forever.
The official music video for Miami takes the vision even further, following Sklar as she cruises through the city’s electrifying streets in a sleek blue car, lost in the spell of the night. The visuals lean into the seductive and dangerous nature of the track, mirroring the way Miami itself plays with the duality of excitement and regret. Every shot drips with an aesthetic that feels both dreamy and untouchable—like the very city she sings about.
Gabi Sklar’s ability to merge sultry storytelling with irresistible melodies makes Miami more than just a song—it’s an anthem for anyone who’s ever gotten lost in the thrill of the night, only to wake up with the weight of their choices.
As she puts it: “Don’t date the DJ and don’t get revenge on your ex… instead write a club record so good, every girl everywhere can’t help but request it.”
That line alone sums up the energy behind Miami—it’s empowering, it’s infectious, and it’s bound to have people hitting replay all year long.
With over 5 million engaged fans across social platforms, Gabi Sklar has been making waves long before Miami. The New York-born singer-songwriter has been crafting her sound for years, honing her skills on her grandmother’s hand-me-down piano before landing in studios with some of the biggest names in the industry. Her impressive list of collaborators includes multi-platinum producer Tommy Brown (Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber), Anton Göransson (Raye, Reneé Rapp), and legendary songwriters like Diane Warren, Isabel Sjöstrand, and Lara Andersson.
With Miami, Sklar proves that she’s not just another viral artist—she’s a powerhouse storyteller with a sound that’s equal parts nostalgic, fresh, and undeniably magnetic. And if this track is any indication of what’s to come, 2025 is shaping up to be her biggest year yet.
