Mimi Raver’s upcoming sophomore album Me And The Machine was recorded in 2020, capturing the emotional highs and lows of life during the pandemic. Created in her home studio, “Room 8,” the album was recorded on analog tape to preserve its raw authenticity.
Premiering today on HighClouds, her latest single “Easier” explores the lingering pain of loss. With moody tones and stark, heart-wrenching vocals, the song opens with the powerful line: “Hey it’s me/Are you still listening?/It’s been thirteen years this spring/And the wound still stings.”
The simple yet haunting lyrics capture the unrelenting nature of grief, with the repeated chorus expressing, “I miss you, I love you.” Mimi Raver’s honesty and stripped-down approach make “Easier” a deeply moving track. Listen below and pre-order the album on Bandcamp.
