VISSIA, an alternative pop musician hailing from Edmonton, Canada, has released an official music video for her newly remastered track “Mountaineer“. From a gorgeous acoustic guitar that immediately hooks the listener in, this is a track that progresses naturally through the rock-ish vocals from which you can feel the singer’s attitude. The drum-base layers help the track achieve a more velveted background that ideally supports the feeling of being a Mountaineer (from a physical and psychological perspective). There are some Feist attitudes in it and some aspects that remind a bit of the Black Keys sonority, regardless to say how good that combo sounds.
Originally featured on her 2017 album “Place Holder“, the song has been given a fresh update including a new video co-directed by VISSIA herself alongside Emily Bachynski, which features actor and songwriter Eva Foote in a starring role.
VISSIA is a talented artist hailing from Edmonton, Alberta, who possesses an undeniable ability to craft compelling songs and captivate audiences with her remarkable voice. Her latest album, “With Pleasure“, fearlessly explores the minutiae of everyday life, transforming seemingly insignificant moments into something truly special. The album longs for human connection, reflecting on missed opportunities and wild nights out that held tremendous meaning. Each track exudes an infectious optimism, suggesting that love is just within reach.
Lyrics
You went out in search of green
Mountain lakes calm and serene
Nature’s natural looking glass
To see what you could see
You left town on two left feet
Meandering through fields and hills
I thought that I could lead you home
But water flows where it will
Water flows where it will
Some things I can never change
Like blood and minds and fingerprints
I hope that you come back to me
I hope that you come back again
Like blood and minds and fingerprints
You say you need the mountain air
To find your breath, but you don’t see
That you’ve been breathing all along
Listen to the sound that it keeps
The only way to breathe is deep
Some things I can never change
Like blood and minds and fingerprints
I hope that you come back to me
I hope that you come back again
Some things I can never change
The words that flew around our heads
I hope that you find what you need
I hope that you come back again
Like blood and minds and fingerprints
