Dive into Motenko's 'Lifted' and Soar on Wings of Authenticity.
Motenko crafts an aural odyssey with their captivating single, "Lifted". This ethereal composition, tinged with seductive undercurrents, captures the languorous drift of a balmy summer evening while simultaneously pulsating with an untamed vitality. The synergy between Micah Motenko's emotive cadence and the ephemeral clarinet notes is akin to dancing shadows beneath an amber moon.
Delicately juxtaposed with the molten harmonies of Sir Woman, this track becomes a modern-day siren’s song, luring us deeper into its embrace. And amid the prevailing homogeny of today’s soundscape, Motenko's ingenious blend of familiar cadences with experimental notes establishes itself as a beacon of unabashed originality. This isn’t merely a song—it’s a reverie, beckoning listeners to shed their chrysalis of conformity and emerge with wings of authenticity. As the Austin mavens embark on their “Lifted” Tour alongside Wild Child this August, one thing is evident: "Lifted" isn't just a song title—it’s a state of being. And oh, how splendidly high they soar.
