Only in the darkest of wombs can we fully appreciate the tender hope of first light. Even this is bittersweet as we mourn the knowing comfort of deprivation in exchange for the illuminated unknown. Lady Midnight holds space for this moment of simultaneous remembrance and release with her new work “Offering”.

“Directed by Teddy Grimes, the video finds Lady Midnight’s emotive lyrics and visceral harmonies ignited by [producer] Ziyad’s disruptive chamber of melodic strings and digital crunch as the sped-up life cycle of organic matter gives contrast to the immortality of art amidst the mortal coils it stems from.” - Chaz Kangas
“Ion” is a joint release from Lady Midnight’s debut solo album titled Death Before Mourning due for release by Sound Vérité Records the spring of 2019 as well as producer Ziyad’s self-released debut LP titled Compost/Regrowth which was made publicly available in April of 2018.
Should you need to let something go, write it down and ask for it to release. Should you need to call something forward, ask for it come. Your words will be kept private and burned at an intention setting ceremony May 4th during Lady Midnight’s second listening event “Ritual”.
