Written by Amarachi Onyeise and Fiona Reid, the track was further produced by Nick and Mike Squillante from “Running Lights”. Musically, ‘This is How’ comes across as a soul-pop infused contender that steals the spotlight from the normal mainstream attire. A powerful soundscape that comes across as empowering and vibrant, Amarachi’s vocals are breathtaking throughout. Prone to the appeal of feel-good film lovers, Amarachi’s distinctive songwriting could easily land her a sync deal within a matter of months.
