Artist’s Journey
The artist, born McKenzie Ellis, has faced a tumultuous period in her life, which has significantly influenced her music. MOTHICA made the difficult choice to cancel her first-ever headline tour and enter rehab. She reflects on this decision, stating, “I made the terrifying decision to cancel my first-ever headline tour and went to rehab. A lot of intense emotions I had been numbing came up.”
Channeling Emotions into Music
During this challenging time, MOTHICA contemplated quitting music altogether due to the anxieties surrounding travel and the music industry that had led to her substance abuse. However, she ultimately decided to channel her feelings into her art. “I was mad at myself for letting it go that far. Finally, I thought, ‘Why don’t I channel these feelings into some angry music?’” she explains. MOTHICA has always aspired to blend pop songwriting with heavier guitar elements, and this EP marks a significant step in that direction.
Exploring Vulnerability and Recovery
In her own words, MOTHICA describes her mindset during the creation of this EP: “Due to my depression and being a recovering addict, I’m so ‘all or nothing.’ Everything seems fatalistic to me. How do I exist in the middle?” After emerging from rehab, she found a newfound ability to be vulnerable, which deeply influenced the songwriting process. “A lot of the words were initially written as poetry on my phone, and the lyrics are the most vulnerable and poetic I’ve ever written,” she reveals.
Addressing Personal Struggles
Throughout the EP, MOTHICA confronts her battle for sobriety, the pain of her first major breakup, and other significant life events. “For so long, I had been numbing out my emotions. I was finally able to process them, and it was freeing,” she shares. This personal exploration adds a layer of depth to the EP, making it a heartfelt reflection of her journey.
New Single Release
To celebrate the announcement of Somewhere In Between, MOTHICA has released a new single titled Save Your Roses. Accompanying the single is a visually captivating music video, which fans can watch below.
