Kelsie Kimberlin is kicking off 2025 with a statement, dropping the music video for her latest single, “Walking Away.” This isn’t just another release—it’s a deeply personal milestone. Kelsie directed the video herself for the first time, and it’s as much about her artistic growth as it is about resilience and letting go.

Set in the quiet, early morning streets of Kyiv, Ukraine, the video shows Kelsie shedding layers of clothing as she walks alone, symbolizing the emotional weight she’s leaving behind after a toxic relationship. Holding a stuffed toy, she steps into a fresh start. The visuals are raw, powerful, and intimate—perfectly echoing the song’s theme of breaking free.

Kelsie didn’t just draw on personal experiences for this project—she wanted it to mean something for others, too.

“Too many people are living in abusive relationships where they feel stuck forever for a variety of reasons,” she explains.

“I wanted to give them a voice and hopefully the courage to finally just walk away. Life is way too short and too precious to live it subjected to negativity and control.”

The choice to film in Kyiv was no coincidence. Just like the song’s personal message of freedom, the location reflects Ukraine’s fight for independence from an oppressive force. The connection between personal and national resilience gives the video an added layer of meaning, showing Kelsie’s passion for using her art as a way to highlight important issues.

Kelsie Kimberlin isn’t new to the spotlight. With over 100 original songs to her name and a collection of hits that have racked up tens of millions of views and streams, she’s built a reputation as a global pop force. She collaborates with Grammy-winning producers and musicians, crafting a sound that’s both polished and deeply emotional. Fans and critics alike have praised her work, and her reach just keeps growing.

2025 is set to be her biggest year yet. Kelsie is preparing to release a full-length movie—a project that not only shows off her acting skills but also incorporates her music into its soundtrack. Centered on Ukrainian resilience, the film and its accompanying tour will amplify her message and introduce her to new audiences around the world.

For Kelsie, music isn’t just about entertainment—it’s about making a difference. Whether she’s tackling personal struggles or shining a light on global issues, her work is rooted in connection, empowerment, and change. “Walking Away” is more than just a breakup anthem—it’s a call for freedom, whether that’s from a toxic relationship or any other force holding you back.

As Kelsie steps into 2025, she’s proving once again that she’s not just an artist—she’s a storyteller, a voice for the voiceless, and a champion for resilience. With a film, a soundtrack, and a tour on the horizon, there’s no doubt that this year will be her most impactful yet. Watch out—Kelsie Kimberlin is just getting started.
