Samia's 'Lizard' Aims to Remain in the Moment

Samia's 'Lizard' Aims to Remain in the Moment

      Bittersweet pop songwriting...

      Samia has released her latest track titled ‘Lizard’.

      Her outstanding 2023 album ‘Honey’ marked a significant breakthrough, leading to an extended period of touring. Now based in Minneapolis, Samia collaborated with producer Caleb Wright, who is part of her favorite band, The Happy Children, for recording sessions last year, joined by her neighbor Jake Luppen from Hippo Campus.

      The upcoming album ‘Bloodless’ is set to be released on April 25th, and fans can now listen to another preview from the forthcoming LP.

      The freshly released ‘Lizard’ is melodically captivating but delves into some profound emotions, reflecting a sense of depersonalization as Samia navigates a challenging social environment.

      The lyrics focus on the struggle to remain grounded and present, even as the mind wanders, all delivered through her typically insightful vocal style.

      She shares her thoughts, stating, “It’s painful to stay present, to exist as a real, flesh-and-blood person at a party, after comfortably existing as a myth or a memory. It was even more painful to try not to ruin a party I’d already ruined.”
