KYOTI Releases 'Citadel'

New York, NY (Top40 Charts) KYOTI release 'Citadel', the sixth single from their expansive 'Project Twelve', which sees the band release one track every month for a year.

'Citadel' draws on the full KYOTI aesthetic, captivating storytelling, over jazz harmony and rhythms that build steadily into euphoric soaring synths. Lyrically 'Citadel' considers personal issues and broader political ideas, both continuing themes throughout KYOTI'S work to date.

Lead singer Ed said of the track, "In the turbulent times we are currently living through it can be so easy to shut ourselves off. Rather than engage with what is going on across the planet and in society, whether that's climate change, homelessness, or mental health issues - instead people tend to seek comfort and shelter from those closest to us.
The phrase "I need a citadel" sits at the heart of this song. I was thinking about how bombarded we all are in the modern world - by the news, social media, and constant expectations of success and progress - but that sometimes you just want to hang out with mates and loved ones, safe in the knowledge that there's no judgement. For me that feels like a citadel and I think a lot of people are probably in need of that too."
