Kicking off the year and her ascension to stardom, alt-pop singer songwriter MOTHICA has released a new single and video for ‘Casualty’ a deeply personal yet powerful track on her own imprint label, Heavy Heart Records in partnership with Rise Records and BMG, and is taken from her highly anticipated forthcoming album Nocturnal.
“On the way to the studio, I was thinking about how many things in my life were set up to destroy me. Like, alcoholism and depression that runs in my family. I suffer from both, and I really hate the idea of either of these things being the reason I give up on life. The word “casualty” refers more to the numbers to represent how fatal a war is, and doesn’t really consider the individuality of each life lost. With over two years sober, this song was an empowered response, that I didn’t want to let these inherited destructive diseases control me anymore. A promise to not die by suicide or drug overdose, which was a very real trajectory for me in the past. It’s one of those songs that just sets my soul on fire in the best way.”
