Colorado based-artist mofie has been hard at work in the studio with producer Corey Coffman (Gleemer) crafting her debut album and follow up to 2021’s Black Hole EP. Today mofie shares a taste of what they’ve been working on with the emotional single “idwba” out through Other People Records. On the track, mofie’s wispy vocals are met by twangy guitars courtesy of Jack McManaman (Warper) giving into a folk meets indie-pop sound. The accompany video, directed by Ben Ward and produced by Jank Films, finds mofie crawling through a laundry machine to give an epic drum performance, an homage to Foo Fighters “Everlong” video.

On the recording process and the song’s meaning, mofie shares:
“It’s core revolves around depression and the dichotomy of wanting to seek solitude and retreat inward while simultaneously craving love and attention to draw you out. Each chorus represents a different POV, the first capturing the aforementioned thought and the second coming from a more clear perspective; when you know you’ve hit rock bottom and understand and accept that you need help.
Working with Corey over the years has helped me grow immensely in discovering the message I’m trying to convey and how to achieve that in the most honest way possible. That was no exception with ‘idwba’. He has always helped me sift through my ideas, harnessing the best ones while maintaining the openness to shoot from the hip and see what comes of it. Additionally, this song welcomes guitar hero Jack McManaman into my world for the first time and I couldn’t be more proud of what the three of us were able to achieve together.”
mofie has a number of performances coming up including a hometown show on October 17th and California run with Ridgeway this November, with more to be announced soon. Dates below.
