Mickey Guyton releases her new EP, Bridges, today (9/11). Bridges features six songs all co-written by Mickey including the previously released tracks “What Are You Gonna Tell Her?,” “Black Like Me” and current single “Heaven Down Here.”

Mickey posted to Instagram, "My new EP Bridges is here! I'm so proud of it and so very happy to finally be able to share these songs with you all. If you only knew what it took for me to get here. I felt unseen for so long. I am extremely grateful that I didn’t let any obstacle keep me down for long. Thank you for hearing me. Thank you for seeing me. Love you guys. God is good."

She added, "Fun fact about my song Bridges. I’m the entire choir. I changed my voice and made up names for each voice. There was Sister Daniels, Susan, Henrietta, Charles...."
