Alice Merton – Lash Out mp3 download
Alice Merton shares new song titled Lash Out. “Lash Out” is about finally finding that stable, terrestrial abode — and being pissed about what she observes there. Observes Merton, “Being an artist and a human in this world always means confronting people who make you feel like you have to act according to their rules. Like most people, I wanted and still want to live by my own rules. The idea, or, if you like, the need, to write and record ‘Lash Out’ was born of a feeling within me.”
The singer/songwriter music is influenced by other cultures as much as transience itself. Born in Frankfurt and raised in Canada and England, Merton’s absorption of different styles and sounds helped craft the worldly progressive pop leanings on her debut, which came out in 2017.
As a child, she learned classical piano and singing while in Canada. When Merton was a teenager, her family moved to Germany, where she would pick up the guitar and write her first song. While in Germany, she also studied at the Mannheim conservatory of music. Later, the family would relocate again, this time to England. These frequent international shifts would play a key role in the songwriting process for her first output, 2017’s No Roots EP (Mom+Pop Records).
In 2016, Alice Merton’s song about not being from anywhere, “No Roots,” hit the charts out of nowhere and shot to No. 1 on the Adult Alternative Songs chart, the first solo female performer to do so since Lorde.
