About the Artist

Ana Luna is an artist on the rise. The Ukrainian-born singer/songwriter now calls Paris home, and she is turning heads with every new release.

Debuting in 2023 with her single, Oxytocin, she immediately makes an impression with her swelling, ambient pop sound. Reverberating synths, big percussion, deep crescendos. She has elemental moments in her ballads.

Her follow-up to Oxytocin, Why Not, is a fantasy-infused ballad that showcases her powerful vocal work. It released September, 2024. Her range is impressive; strongest in her alto, as her lower register has a soothing sound to it. As Why Not builds, the production adds quality after quality, showing that there is so much diversity that Luna has to offer.

So far, 2025 has been Luna’s most productive year. In May, she released the sensational song, Dance in a Trance. This. Song. Is. Art. Defined. The snare rolls offer a sort of drunken rhythm, as the arpeggiated guitar half-commits to the song, as if it is playing with its back turned. This is all intentional, and then it becomes this beautiful thing as the chaos of all of the different sounds; the guitars, the saw bass synth, the drums, the xylophones, then it closes with Luna and a piano, seeping into silence. This is an extraordinary song.

She followed Dance in a Trance with July’s Daddy’s Empire and August’s Can We Just Pretend We Met at a Bar? Musically, Luna gets stronger and stronger with every release. 2025 has been building up to something special, and the moment is nearly upon us as she is a month out from releasing her debut album, Tainted Silhouettes, which will hit virtual shelves on November 7th.

About the Song

Bleeding Pen is the 4th single release in 2025 for Ukrainian/French independent artist, Ana Luna. It released on September 19th, 2025. It runs at approximately 6 minutes and comes ahead of her debut album, Tainted Silhouettes, which releases on November 7th, 2025. Bleeding Pen is a deep running ballad, that features Luna accompanied by a full band; it is pop/R&B, with synth, jazz, and other influences that diversify the sound and really make this a unique performance. It was independently released by Ana Luna music.

“The song explores the guilt of hurting someone through both sides. On one hand, it is me apologizing and admitting I never meant to hurt my lover. But it also acknowledges that through that pain, I was forced to reflect and discover things about myself I may have never realized otherwise.” ~ Ana Luna

I hear this. In fact, I love how the song sort of goes through its own phases. It can almost be dissected into three parts. The first part feels like a piano ballad that takes a real R&B approach, and it has a very classical build. The production does a great job supporting Luna’s vocals with vocoders. The weeklong guitar is rightfully sort of buried into the mix at the start, as sort of an afterthought, giving the piano its moment.

Then the song transitions to the sort of jazzier element, picks up on the beat, adds a synth horn, the piano grows a little more dynamic, as Luna delivers the line, “One day, I hope we will laugh about it because we will realize we were just kids. And I hope I will be remembered as something good, not only as something bad.”

After she delivers this line, the song transitions once again to a more rock sound, playing out instrumentally.

Final Thoughts

I think Ana Luna not only has potential as a breakthrough artist, but I think she is special enough to have staying power if she does ever cross over to mainstream; a very real possibility. She is simply put, radio ready.

She delivers her vocals in a very swooning way, captivating her listeners with each hanging note. It’s the type of vocal performance that sounds like she is walking to a dance in a living room, stopping to run her fingers over the mantle of a fireplace, playing a non-existent piano in the process. The type of vocal performance that can’t walk past an arrangement of flowers without gently running her fingers through them. Her vocals don’t rush to the point.

Her songwriting is vulnerable, cerebral, and reflective. I think she has a particular gift with her storytelling. It’s not enough to say she would fit right in with a pop genre, though she would. It’s a rare and beautiful thing to listen to a song and hear the absolute dedication behind the performance. To hear that the artist put everything they are into that work.

I’m sold. November 7th can’t get here fast enough, in my opinion.
