'Stranger Things' Star Maya Hawke Releases New Song 'By Myself' Ahead of Debut Album
Looks like Robin Buckley has many more talents outside of Scoops Ahoy! The Stranger Things actress just dropped a new song titled "By Myself," along with the announcement of her debut album, Blush.
As reported by Pitchfork, the 21-year-old star penned the lyrics, with Jesse Harris writing the music for the forthcoming album. Hawke said in a statement, "This album happened accidentally. From my point of view, Blush is a collection of secret messages, hidden communications with the people in my life." When speaking about the new single specifically, she added, "'By Myself' was a secret message to myself, that I hope I’ll receive someday soon." How mysteriously beautiful!

And as if Stranger Things fans needed more reason to support her latest venture, Pitchfork reports that the daughter of Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman will be donating merchandise proceeds to the Food Bank for New York City, which is an incredibly important move as we're in the midst of the Coronavirus pandemic.
Looks like the actors behind the Hawkins, Indiana crew are a seriously talented bunch! Finn Wolfhard, who plays Mike Wheeler, just released a new project under the name The Aubreys, and was previously in a band called Calpurnia. Joe Keery, who plays Steve Harrington, played guitar for the band Post Animal, and he also releases music under the name Djo. Additionally, Gaten Matarazzo, who plays Dustin Henderson, is in a musical group called Work in Progress.
As we wait for more news regarding Season 4 of Stranger Things (which is currently paused on filming due to Coronavirus), at least we have some awesome tunes from the cast to pass the time. Hawke's debut album Blush is set to release June 19. And if you're looking for more content to binge, check out these awesome deals here for Sling TV to catch up on all your favorite shows.
