Marissa Burwell‘s recent 4-track EP, Either Way, unveiled through DevilDuck Records, has captured our attention, with Kiss Her being the standout song. Marissa’s superbly soft vocals, effortless melodies, and the excellent indie folk soundscapes, all shrouded in a gentle veil of melancholy, define the essence of this song. It becomes an intimate companion, evoking a sense of connection and emotion that resonates deeply with the listener.
“Kiss her is based on coming into your sexual identity later in life and resenting the way heterosexual norms set you up to see women loving women relationships as something that can serve men instead of as an option for love. Sonically this song pulls on inspiration from the likes of Hannah Cohen, with a nylon string guitar and keys that give the illusion of a dream like environment.” Marissa Burwell
