From London, ETTIE emerges as a powerful voice for self-discovery and authenticity. Her latest single, “Marty McFly,” not only explores the complexities of coming out but also serves as a vibrant and anthemic celebration of queer identity.
ETTIE’s introspective journey, marked by her coming out experience in her early 20s, takes center stage in “Marty McFly.” With candor and vulnerability, she invites listeners into her world of self-reflection and growth. Her lyrics resonate deeply, echoing the sentiments of many who have questioned their own identity, pondering, “how the hell did I not know I was gay?”
The music itself is a blend of infectious pop melodies it does mention back to the future in stages, which for me didn’t really suit the topic but maybe I missed something here.

The production of the track is polished yet retains a sense of raw authenticity. The lively instrumentation and energetic beat create an atmosphere of celebration, mirroring the liberation that often accompanies the journey of self-acceptance.
ETTIE’s courage to share her personal story and struggles with the world is commendable. “Marty McFly” is more than just a song; it’s a testament to the power of music as a means of self-expression and empowerment. It reminds us that the journey of self-discovery is one to be celebrated and that it’s never too late to embrace and love one’s true self.
ETTIE’s “Marty McFly” adds another layer of authenticity to the LGBTQ+ experience. Her willingness to explore her own journey and share it with the world is an inspiration, and it’s a testament to the transformative power of music.
The tune stands out as a shining example of her talent. It’s a song that not only uplifts but also reminds us that the journey of self-discovery is a beautiful and empowering one.
