Pop-rock artist Haleluya Hailu says she wants to take back the term “manic pixie dream girl.” Inspired by the film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and contemporaries like Willow and Clairo, she and her band stake their claim on the Gen Z revival of big, emotional rock music with new album Eternally Yours. Try opener “USELESS” and “MANIC PIXIE PACIFIST” for a taste of Hailu’s heart-on-sleeve anthems.
