Mothica – Mirage

Today’s track of the day comes from Mothica with single Mirage!

Mothica has released a fab single called Mirage!

The track is a teaser of new album Kissing Death (August 23, Heavy Heart Records).

Mothica 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.”
