“It’s about realizing you can’t control how another person feels, that all you can do is control the path you take," the young artist says. "It’s as much about self-motivation as it is about the uncertainties of a relationship."
Musically, 'Up To You' is a dance mix, but don’t be surprised to hear Relli perform it as an acoustic ballad the next time he plays a local gig at Madison’s Brother Mike’s.
