about

“Rivera” is the first song Alex and I collaborated on together. The guitar has this haunting sway that lulls you into a trance. It is an ode to the moon because of its hypnotizing light that illuminates our shadows. It doesn’t eliminate them, we have to recognize our own shadows and do the inner work. Letting go of what no longer serves you can be painful. Yet there is freedom in the healing. For me, “Rivera” is like my own icaro, or medicine song, where I am constantly shedding layers of an old self and mourning that part of self, while finding beauty in the process. - Vanessa Burden

lyrics

En la noche
bajo tu luz

En la noche

Yo puedo ver
Todos mis sombras están iluminadas
Todos mis sombras están iluminadas
