Originally recorded in November of 2020, Valerie Barbosa interviews Thea Mundy about the creative process behind bringing her debut album "Frame By Frame" to life.

The Making of "Frame By Frame"

"My Mind" is the first song I have recorded here in Nashville. This track begins a new era in my artist career that is heavily influenced by the styles of Sky Ferreira, Lana Del Rey, Ethel Cain, and Phoebe Bridgers. These rock influences have inspired me to use unique methods of recording. We were able to produce the guitar's notable reverb by pointing an amp into a washing machine that had a mic inside.

LYRICS:
Sunray, lighter, matches
Are all ways to brighten my darkness
Coffee, caffeine, jump start
Are all things to fasten my heart

But none of them hit like you, no none of them do
None of them fit like you, nothing feels like you

And none of these hurt like you, burns how you do
None of them hit like you, nothing hits like you
And nothing can touch me again if I can’t touch you
No one will love me again if i keep loving you

Shower, dead sea, chlorine
Can’t wash me of these dreams
Where I see you, scenic rear view
You say it, mean it, come through

And nothing beats dreaming of you, I’m dreaming of you
Everything only exists when i see you

And no one would fight for you, yearn how I do 
No one will hit like you, nothing hits like you
And nothing can touch me again if I can’t touch you
No one will love me again if I keep loving you

You

Nothing can put me in harms way
You’ve already signed off on my grave
Your memory kept on my most sacred shelf
No one can touch you, there’s nobody else

Nothing can put me in harms way
You’ve already signed off on my grave
Your memory kept on my most sacred shelf
No one can touch you, there’s nobody else

Sunray, lighter, matches
All that’s left are these ashes
