New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Songwriter/producer
Little Monarch shares her whimsical new single "
Tears" and an accompanying music video. The vibey tune combines pieces of soul, jazz, and indie pop to create a sunshine filled sonic reminder to let go of control and find your own place in the flow.
"
Tears" opens with a laid back, mellow essence. Tranquil guitars mesh with
Little Monarch's airy vocals to form a warm, inviting tone. As the track builds so does the soulfulness as a molten guitar line comes vibrantly alive. Finally cresting to a frenetic peak "
Tears" unfolds allowing the crunchy guitar riff, rattling snares, and a tinkling piano to form the perfect symphonic finale.
Little Monarch holds nothing back vocally as she croons "I won't run from my desires / won't you come my way?"
Little Monarch says this about the new single: "'Tears' is really a comeback song up against a complex and growing bed of colorfully driven production. Like an old car starting up and then eventually coasting at 70.
Sunshine coming and soaking up all your tears. More of a mantra and meditation on days spent in Los Angeles dreaming, losing, spilling all kinds of tears then surrendering and letting it all be absorbed by another sunbent day."
