Mae Muller Returns With “Breakaway,” A Bold, Independent New Chapter

Mae Muller drops “Breakaway,” an empowering club-pop anthem and her first release since going independent.

Mae Muller is so back—with a vengeance. After a 15-month hiatus, the North London pop star steps into a new era with “Breakaway,” her first single as an independent artist. Written by Mae and produced by Herik Michelsen, the track blends euphoric dance-pop with raw emotional honesty.

A sonic evolution, “Breakaway” pulls from underground club culture and early 2000s dance anthems while staying grounded in Mae’s authentic, self-aware songwriting. “I wrote Breakaway in a time when I felt quite lost as an artist,” Mae explains. “I was putting so much pressure on myself… It’s about navigating vulnerability, but also finding my power within it, whilst not losing the joy along the way.”

The music video, directed by Ben Cole (Kylie, Mahalia), delivers moody visuals that echo the song’s introspective spirit. Equal parts haunting and hypnotic, it matches the energy of a late-night catharsis.

“Breakaway” signals a fresh artistic direction for Mae—a blend of candid lyricism, lush synth production, and emotionally resonant storytelling. From heartbreak to healing, she captures every beat of personal transformation.

This new chapter follows a year of deep reflection, growth, and creative reinvention. Mae’s message? You can be vulnerable, powerful, and joyful all at once. She’s channeling every high, low, and hard-earned lesson into music that feels as personal as it is danceable.

With “Breakaway,” Mae Muller reintroduces herself not just as an artist, but as a force to watch in 2025. And this is only the beginning.
