Kelsie Kimberlin, a rising star in the pop music world, kicks off 2025 with her latest single, “Walking Away”, a poignant anthem of empowerment and liberation. Accompanied by a visually arresting music video, this track showcases Kelsie’s evolution as both an artist and storyteller. Filmed in Kyiv, Ukraine, the video merges deeply personal themes with a broader narrative of resilience, symbolizing the act of breaking free from toxic relationships on both personal and national levels.

“Walking Away” is a soulful and emotive track that resonates with anyone who has faced the challenges of letting go. Kelsie’s powerful vocals glide over a lush pop arrangement, blending heartfelt lyrics with an empowering melody. The song’s message is universal: life is too short to remain tethered to negativity and control. Kelsie delivers this message with authenticity, making it clear that her intent is not just to share her story but to inspire others to take charge of their own lives.


The video, Kelsie’s directorial debut, is as impactful as the song itself. Collaborating with renowned Ukrainian director Pavlo Khomiuk, Kelsie conceptualized a visual narrative that speaks volumes. The video depicts her shedding layers of clothing, symbolizing the release of years of pain and abuse. Walking through the early morning streets of Kyiv, she clutches a stuffed toy, a tender nod to reclaiming innocence and starting anew. The stark imagery of her solitary journey captures the essence of resilience and self-discovery. The choice to film in Kyiv is deeply symbolic. Kelsie draws a parallel between her personal story and Ukraine’s ongoing struggle for independence and dignity.





Just as Ukraine has endured decades of an abusive, controlling relationship with its aggressor, Kelsie’s narrative mirrors the fight to break free and move forward. This layered symbolism elevates the song and video beyond the personal, connecting it to a larger, global audience. Looking ahead, “Walking Away” sets the tone for what promises to be a transformative year for Kelsie. In addition to her music, she is set to release a feature-length film and accompanying soundtrack, both of which will further spotlight her artistic vision and unwavering support for Ukraine. With plans to tour alongside the film, Kelsie aims to bring her message of empowerment and resilience to new audiences worldwide. “Walking Away” is more than a song—it’s a declaration of independence and a call to action. Through her artistry, Kelsie Kimberlin continues to prove herself as a voice of courage and hope in the pop music landscape.
