Merci Merci

merci, mercy is the creative project of Australian singer-songwriter Mercedes Thorne, who crafts irresistibly catchy pop tunes that openly explore themes of mental health, youth struggles, and personal vulnerability. Growing up between Beijing, Thailand, and Sydney, she began writing music as a teenager to express her honest and intimate experiences, quickly gaining attention with her breakout 2020 single “F***ed Myself Up.” Her sound blends raw, relatable storytelling with modern, edgy pop melodies, making her a compelling voice in contemporary indie pop.

Since emerging on the scene, merci, mercy has built a devoted fan base with a steady stream of singles and her debut EP *no thank you, no thanks*, which confronts issues like toxic relationships, addiction, and self-doubt with both candor and infectious energy. Signed to Capitol Records US, she continues to push boundaries with her music, combining emotionally charged lyrics with vibrant synths and hooks that resonate widely. Her work is praised not only for its catchy sound but also for its fearless approach to discussing mental health in a way that feels both personal and inclusive.
