Elias Hix Displays Superstar Potential on “Paper Teeth”
Elias Hix is turning heads with his ethereal sound, matured songwriting, and genuine attitude. The 18 year old from South Carolina recently released his new single “Paper Teeth” which has garnered significant traction throughout the travel influencers community on Instagram Reels. Hix’s sound sticks to his roots and upbringing, encouraging listeners to dive into the environment he grew up in. His picturesque descriptions of nature and his graceful approach will catch you in awe when you listen to him for the first time.
Incredibly, Hix wrote “Paper Teeth” in the kitchen of his childhood home with the idea of the song centered around how insecurities can affect you. Hix said that insecurities are funny because they only exist in your head — the fear and the hate of your insecurities can only hurt you if you let them. “‘Paper Teeth’ can’t hurt you; they’re just paper,” Hix said. “It might look fighting; but the only harm they can cause is fear.” Clearly, Hix’s lyricism is on a whole different level as he pairs complex ideas with analogies that clearly explain them.
If you’ve yet to tune into Elias Hix’s music, I recommend you go stream his music as quick as you can. It’s only a matter of time before he’s one of the biggest artists in the indie-folk scene. Listen to the new track below:
