“Heartbreak Rodeo is the first project of mine that I’ve been able to really take the time to focus on. That has been so refreshing. I’m always going to write about the journey… The inevitable ups and downs I face will find their way into my music. Although the topic of this EP is mostly about heartbreak, I tried to keep the melodies and music on a more positive/nostalgic note,” Meola shares.

“’Mar Vista’ is the nostalgic feeling and memories that stick with you after a breakup. The smell, the conversations, the moments that mean nothing and everything all at once…”

The piano on the track weaves a pensive harmony while the strings create an orchestral melancholy, enriching the emotional depth of the track with lush, sweeping arrangements.

“This song is about what it was like for me to be depressed while having a partner who doesn’t understand what that feels like; feeling unloved when you need love the most is surely difficult. Writing this and getting to sing it live has been such a great way to express these emotions I kept so bottled up,” Lily shares.
