X: Wheel Of Fortune

lyrics:

I put my life on hold for you
Refused to stop giving
To something that stopped me from living
And it's my own fault
I know
But right now I'm angry I'm letting it show

I poured my soul into cups that got thrown
Pieces swept off the floor
My bleeding fingers ignored
My brain says "try again"

Here I am trying
I guess I'm built to get up
To get up when I'm dying
Send me a sign
I don't know if I can
Keep on putting my heart
My heart on the line
Send me a sign

You said that I'm getting old
Refusing to turn into the thing
That I laughed at at 17
It's so naive to think that dreams expire
Like after 35 I lose my right to try

I'm not your spectacle
A stupid sideshow
Look at me refusing to grow up
To be real
To give up
To get old

Here I am trying
I guess I'm built to get up
To get up when I'm dying
Send me a sign
I don't know if I can
Keep on putting my heart
My heart on the line
Send me a sign

If I stretch my voice
Higher
Louder
Scream it out from the rooftops
Will someone, somewhere hear me?

Here I am trying
I guess I'm built to get up
To get up when I'm dying
Send me a sign
I don't know if I can
Keep on putting my heart
My heart on the line
Send me a sign

90s/2000s, Reverse Aesthetics & Backmasking from the ruins of Goetia

Highland Kites started as Los Angeles native Marissa Lamar's solo project, and was a way for her to deal with the aftermath of her beating a severe case of neurologic Lyme Disease, losing much of her earlier life in the process. Music was a way to deal with not  just the pain, but to help her heal and find a new purpose. 

Having never played or sung she started learning piano in 2014 at 26 and within 6 months played her first show. What started as just something to help her mind heal and give her an artistic outlet became an obsession and something she fell deeply  in love with. 

She shortly after met drummer, Neil Briggs through a mutual friend. Their musical styles were very different but the contrast created a sound that they both resonated with. 

They have since released 4 EPs, a full length album and a few singles, done 6 tours and over 100 shows. 

They're music has been described as "Hope Sandoval fronting Radiohead". They have a love for adding texture to songs, and creating dreamy landscapes around brutally honest and direct lyrics. 

They recently decided to leave Los Angeles and move to Nashville, TN. 

They released their latest EP "Better Off" in June 2019 via MGM Distribution. The two music videos they made (with Space Dream productions) off the EP have been making rounds in the festival circuit with multiple nominations and awards so far. 

They just finished 3 songs in the studio and will be releasing the first one (Two Halves) in Sept 2019.
