Polaris

Polaris is Shye’s highly anticipated new single, set to arrive this fall on a day rich with personal meaning — October 12th, which is both Shye’s birthday and that of her partner, Liz.

Inspired by Polaris, the North Star — a timeless symbol of guidance and direction — mixed with the imagery of the divided mountain which symbolizes the divides we all face: between choices, identities, and the places we call home. Polaris represents the steady force that leads us through these moments of uncertainty of our life split decisions.

For Shye, Polaris reflects the pull between her two hometowns — Bethlehem, PA and Glen Cove, NY — and the journey of staying true to what she loves, following those passions as her own personal North Star.

Yet Polaris is bigger than one story. It can stand for your guiding force, whether that is love, music, science, or any purpose that helps you navigate life’s crossroads. Its meaning is truly limitless, encouraging each listener to consider what anchors them when faced with difficult decisions.

Don’t miss Shye performing Polaris live for the second time on Sunday, July 6th — an unforgettable preview of a track sure to inspire.
