The project of multi-talented artist Martha Meredith, For Esmé, returns with a taste of forthcoming new LP, Righteous Woman. "For Others" is a synth driven lurker from the Toronto natives.
The competing synths are backed by steady percussion and an understated guitar riff, with Meredith's enthralling vocals reflecting on the struggle of being a mother and pursing her career in music. The tune is accompanied by the below message, expanding on Meredith's thoughts;
Determined and affecting in its unravelling of the gendered legacies of marriage and motherhood, 'For Others' offers no clear answers in considering the families we make and the families that raise us, instead softly reflecting on what we carry forward and what we leave behind.
Very much like this track the album Righteous Woman is about women and their battle for acceptance in a male-dominated world, with Meredith taking influence from her ongoing work with Toronto Women in Music. This is sure to be an album chock full of electronic wonders with thought provoking and relatable lyrics. I'm excited.
Righteous Woman is set for release May 25.
