Erica Knox Turns Self-Doubt Into Empowerment on Vulnerable Soft-Pop Single “Growing Song,” Written at Abbey Road Studios

by Leslie Sherman October 20, 2025 1:34 pm Tagged With: singer, songwriter

Toronto-based singer-songwriter Erica Knox continues her Abbey Road Studios story with “Growing Song” – a chill, introspective soft-pop track that balances vulnerability with resilience. Written during her time at the legendary London studio – handpicked as one of three artists to record there through DHL’s FastTrack Sessions – the single lays bare Knox’s moments of self-doubt while celebrating the growth that comes with perseverance.

“It’s a very vulnerable song, highlighting every thought of self-doubt that tends to race through my head,” Knox shares. “Among that comes knowing that things will eventually work out as long as I keep trying to build a happy life, and a strong career for myself.”

The track’s inspiration ties directly to Knox’s journey. After being turned down for the same contest in 2023, she almost didn’t apply again in 2024. But a last-minute submission won her a life-changing opportunity. “A few weeks later I was being flown out to London. I was so proud of myself for making it here and I had to write about the mental challenges leading up to that moment.”
