Bringing the charm with their signature neo-soul sound, female-led powerhouse Menajerie is back with another sultry, funky song. ‘First Sunday’ is packed with passion and pain.
‘First Sunday’ is a heart-fluttering number that ebbs and flows with a funky groove and a bittersweet bite. The neo-soul instrumentals are free flowing and feel ever-evolving while the emotive vocals and harmonies are angelic.
This song is about moving through grief and mourning the loss of family. The lyrics speak on the complex feelings that weigh heavy on the heart, even years later. Gracie Mack speaks about the track: “‘First Sunday’ is a song of release and catharsis from the complex world of grief. The song begins with pensive vocals over lush piano chords and slick guitar rhythms. The bridge then provides release with sparkling Rhodes and cosmic, belting vocals reaching a moving crescendo. The song ends by turning inwardly reflective. Contemplating the effect of grief on the soul.”
