The Boy Who Cried Freedom

Unknown (To You)

smarturl.it/SomethingToRemember

Arrows
cut from the woods
with love that we sheltered
and misunderstood

Shadows 
sing from the walls
longing for bodies
the ones that they lost

Acres
fill up the lakes
the land of our fathers
the ones we forsake

If you leave 
don’t forget
If you love
don’t regret
If you leave
don’t forget 
all the love that you left

On her latest release, “Forever”, the hip-hop heroine delivers an empowering message over an ominous bass line, dropping lines like, “No, I’m not flawless. I’m scarred up, and I’m fine with it.” Spitting bars and spinning words, she goes on to recount how mama taught her “stay woke,” admit her own body image struggles, and name-check Do The Right Thing. It feels like it could be rap’s own answer to the “No-Makeup Movement.” However, her message is just starting to resound on a grand scale…

A voice Okayplayer.com proclaimed “one of the most formidable microphone mavens in the game,” Sa-Roc is in the midst of finishing up her Rhymesayers Entertainment full-length debut— due out later in 2018.

INTO THE NIGHT

There’s no heartbreak and pain
‘til I hear your name
There’s a feeling of fear
That’ll stay the same
But there’s a power in my soul
That is setting sail
Though the light’s growing low
I will never fail
 
Let the hope inside fill me up
As I dive
 
Chorus:
Into the night
My kingdom
My heaven
My hope
And my father’s voice
These failures
These lessons
They are feeding on my love
As the world just hums what I know
Of the fear and pain that I chose
I’ll be diving down and let go
Into the night
 
Verse 2:
There’s battle in my bones
When I see your face
Like an apple of Eden
I can almost taste
Loud the echo in my heart
That I can’t deny
There’s a method to the madness,
The war inside
 
Let the hope inside fill me up
As I dive
 
Into the night
My kingdom
My heaven
My hope
And my father’s voice
These failures
These lessons
They are feeding on my love
As the world just hums what I know
Of the fear and pain that I chose
I’ll be diving down and let go
Into the night
 
Tie me down
Would you ask for freedom?
Lie me down
Silence these demons
Shadows in the fire
Have you seen them?
Truth building up
An army of reason
 
Let the hope inside fill me up
As I dive
 
Into the night
My kingdom
My heaven
My hope
And my father’s voice
These failures
These lessons
They are feeding on my love
As the world just hums what I know
Of the fear and pain that I chose
I’ll be diving down and let go
Into the night

After Tonight

After Tonight - Justin Nozuka

Intense, soaring vocals and classical-inspired piano amalgamate to concoct dramatic indie rock with a misting of moody goth/doom folk.

Sexy funeral music. When a band’s style is difficult to classify, its interpretations and descriptors can vastly vary. This is just one of many conveyed of the difficult-to-pigeonhole Minor Birds’ (aka singer-songwriter/pianist Chelsea Wilde) sound.

A classically trained pianist and self-taught multi-instrumentalist (including guitar, accordion, and banjo), Wilde has been composing and performing music in different capacities since childhood. Rising from the dust of a creative dry spell brought on by a series of tragic events in her life in 2008, the band, moniker and concept of Minor Birds was hatched. Channeling deep-sea emotional depths, the project finds Wilde exploring life’s mysticism and darkness mixed with a healthy infusion of timeless tales of love - or lack thereof. Musically, Minor Birds weaves together striking mezzo-soprano vocals, ominous baroque-era classical piano, modern guitar work, stand-up bass, cello and various other instrumentation to deliver dramatic indie pop rock with notable elements of goth, doom-folk and grunge.  

Over the near-decade since its inception, Wilde has been writing, performing and continuing to lay the sonic and visionary foundations of the project and experimenting with a variety of soundscapes (including electronica and folk rock). Pulling influences from everything encountered or experienced, she does not set out to copy or tweak any one sound, yet seeks to create truly original works that build and amplify the mood while spinning poetic tales, both otherworldly and familiar. And – that voice! Often oscillating between a silky coo and a guttural howl, Wilde possesses a rare instinctive gift with maneuvering her powerful – yet controlled - vocal mechanism to paint and elicit an emotional atmosphere or response. 

At heart, Wilde’s musical gems take form as emotionally-receptive storytelling – evocative, solemn and dreamy. Her disciplined and culturally-astute academic background is apparent throughout. Yet, rather than remaining rigid and stubborn in structure and delivery, there’s an intuitive freeness and spontaneity to Wilde’s work, letting the music carry her adrift on its unpredictable paths - as it correspondingly does the same for the listener. Intrinsically poetic, Wilde’s music is about the journey, rather than a set destination. 

Minor Birds’ forthcoming EP “The Alchemist” is set for release Fall 2017. 

"There’s nothing sweeter than the pure, honest music, that runs deep into your soul. When you have the pleasure of hearing Minor Birds…the chaotic world around you melts away." - Our City Radio 
“Minor Birds is nothing but major. Eerie crystal clear vocals....” - 360 Magazine ​
