On the finish of the month, Molly Burch is releasing a brand new album, Daydreamer. She’s shared “Bodily” and “Unconditional” from it to this point, and in the present day she’s placing out a 3rd single, “Tattoo,” which options backing vocals from Luna Li.

“I wrote this tune for my finest buddy Lena who handed away once we have been 19,” Burch stated. “She was really probably the most particular individual I’ve ever recognized. It’s exhausting to explain her. She was probably the most fearless, daring one that did something for amusing.” She continued:

For instance, on our senior yr scavenger hunt she bought a instructor’s title tattoo’d on her ass. That isn’t the tattoo I’m referring to on this tune, although. Earlier than she handed she bought an emblem on her breast bone that meant ‘no concern.’ After she handed I made a decision to get the identical tattoo in the identical place so I might all the time have her near my coronary heart and keep in mind to not be afraid. I wrote this tune for her as a result of Daydreamer is about my relationship to music and he or she was the primary individual I performed music with. I hope it does her justice.

For the music video, I collaborated with Lena’s sister Mia –who I’m deeply shut with. We wished to point out footage of Lena and paint an image of what she was like. We added in public area footage of nature and visuals that reminded us of her. The road within the tune ‘I wanna let you know it’s okay, although it’s loopy, you wouldn’t consider it, I believe you’d hate it’ refers to how a lot she’s missed since she’s handed. Social media, local weather disasters — as a lot as I want she was right here in the present day, I believe she would have had a very exhausting time with trendy life. She had a severely delicate soul. I added footage of wildfires, earthquakes, and water air pollution to symbolize what I used to be saying with this line. I hope this tune reaches individuals who have skilled nice loss and generally is a consolation to them. I share this with love.

Watch and pay attention under.
