‘Beauty Looking Back’ by Holy Matter | Album Premiere
Exclusive album premiere of ‘Beauty Looking Back’ by Holy Matter, slated for release on October 4, 2024 via Royal Oakie.
‘Beauty Looking Back’ is the debut album from Holy Matter, the solo project of Leanna Kaiser, an artist whose roots in St. Louis add a rich layer to her LA soundscape. This collection of nine tracks is a journey through the evolving seasons of life, merging psych-folk, hypnagogic pop, and experimental noise into a kaleidoscopic tapestry. Each song is like a snapshot, a moment suspended in time, echoing the warmth of nostalgia and the chill of uncertainty.
With contributions from former bandmate Andy Kahn, who brings lush layers of guitar, and the ethereal harmonies of Kate Bollinger, Kaiser crafts a sound that feels intimately personal yet universally resonant. ‘The Spirit of St Louis’ stands out, a beautiful confluence of past and present, where memories and melodies intertwine, revealing the raw honesty of self-reflection.
Produced by Leanna Kaiser, the album captures the essence of her artistic evolution, tracking her through the sonic landscapes she’s traversed. As she puts it, “I change; I am the same,” reflecting the cyclical nature of her music and life. With its release on October 4, 2024, through Royal Oakie Records, ‘Beauty Looking Back’ invites listeners to reminisce, reflect, and find comfort in the familiar.
