Florist offer another tantalizing glimpse into their latest album, Jellywish, via the poignant bloom of “Moon, Sea, Devil”. Singer Emily Sprague’s voice is fragile yet possesses untold reserves of resilience. Beginning as a simple acoustic conversation, it slowly blossoms into a measured ramble, a gentle reflection of emotional awareness. Its tenure is brief, but it imparts a considerable gravity in the way in approaches connection and the desires that fuel our experiences.
“‘Moon, Sea, Devil’ is about our multidimensional consciousness inside of earth bodies. In the years since our self-titled record, I started thinking more and more about who we (humans) are as a collective entity, influencing each other and the world around us with many small actions, emotions, and reactions,” Sprague explains. “This song believes in the unseen worlds beside ours and suggests using that perspective to reach through the veils, creating a powerful tool for channeling greater empathy, love, and connection with others here in our humbling reality. To tap into our power as a species, create change for actual good, and make life better and more equal for all people, we must dare to take care of each other and oppose all that does not care for life on earth.”
