MOTHICA has unveiled ‘Mirage,’ another single from her forthcoming album Kissing Death, due for release on 23 August 2024 via Heavy Heart Records, in partnership with Rise Records. Pre-order Kissing Death HERE. Speaking about the new single, she said:
“At one point, this record was taking a classic western inspired direction but I cut most of those songs. I love slide guitar, old church bells, and that spaghetti western influence you’d hear in a Tarantino movie. But being from Oklahoma, I always stayed away from country adjacent sounds because it’s all I ever heard on the radio. I heard about this idea in therapy I wanted to write about. People imagine achieving their goals will bring them happiness, like this still image in their mind of “once I get this, i’ll be happy forever”. But emotions aren’t permanent, it could just be a mirage of water in the desert. So this is my spin on western imagery as a MOTHICA song. The fans heard a snippet and nicknamed it my yeehaw-thica song”.
MOTHICA will be touring Europe in September 2024. She will perform in Belgium on 16 September at the Kavka Oudaan in Antwerp. Tickets for this date are available on the venue’s website. For information on the other tour dates, visit MOTHICA’s website!
