The Arwen Lewis ShowMeklitThe visionary Ethiopian-American vocalist, composer, and cultural activist Meklit has released Ethio Blue, a prescient six-song collection attuned to inner landscapes. Recorded with GRAMMY-winning songwriter / producer Dan Wilson, Ethio Blue is powered by an array of Ethio Jazz-inspired grooves, while presenting some of Meklit’s most personal songwriting to date. Meklit previously released the single “Ethio Blue,” an homage to Mongo Santamaria’s seminal hit “Afro-Blue,” in honor of the rich legacy bequeathed by her forebearers. This followed “Antidote”, a bouncing ode to emotional wisdom and self-knowledge, powered by an array of funk, arpeggios, and Ethio Jazz.2024-11-1357 min

Sara Mulford MusicI Am A Seasonis this all it is?
floating on the wind
one moment to spin, before
taking up space in the ground
is this all it is?
the daybreak is fuzzy and grey
the breath of the morning
making wetness on my face
for a second i see the most beautiful thing
and i think that there must be a reason
then i’m pulled back to roots and to sky and to moon
Earth is evergreen, and i am a season
is this all it is?
cellophane wrapping
coffee and a used napkin
all the artifacts i’ll leave behind
is this...2021-04-3002 min
Sara Mulford MusicTruth Be ToldTruth be told, I don’t wanna spill
The truth comes out, marijuana
Makes you feel so good
Paranoia freaks you out
Freaks you out
Truth be told, I’m a liar
When I’m all alone, I feel better
‘Cause the silence melts like butter
In my hand
In my hand
I don’t wanna be photographed
Oh, I wanna be in my bed
Next to you and only you
Sounds like something I would do
I never been a people person
Somebody call the coroner
Here she lies in all her glory
Was her ending worth the story
Surely

Sara Mulford MusicBrush FireLike the last chip you throw on the pile
Say "it's only a dollar" and smile
I don't need all this money, you see
No, it makes me so sad I can't breathe
I've been giving it up like I always used to
And running right back when it gets too hard to
It's too hard to make a change
Like the last drop of gas on the mile
I am just holding on for the ride
You've been handing me love I won't take
I'm a brush fire hiding from the rain
I've been giving it up like I always used to
And running right back when it gets too hard to
It's too hard to make a ch...2019-07-1204 min
Sara Mulford MusicI Sleeplyrics:
I sleep with the door closed
to trap every thought i have
and swirl them around and around
they breed with themselves
bastards in my head
I sleep with an air filter
it captures all the dust
the only thing i hear
a cacophony of noise
white noise
I sleep in a fortress
a cloud of emptiness
i bask in the solitude
and give entrance to
versions of myself
I sleep with a real nightmare
of skies both dark and bare
the only light i see
is a distant memory
ooh, wake me
I sleep in a distant world

Sara Mulford MusicI Am the Doctorlyrics:
Put up a wall and doctor my life
Cut up the parts and clean off the knife
Paste them back together so they make sense once again
I am the doctor, yes I am
Yes I am, yes I am
Yes I am, yes I am
Yes I am, yes I am
Yes I am
Grab a machine to look inside my head
What have we here, it seems as though I’ve bled
My feelings all together in a pool of murky red
I am the doctor, yes I am
Yes I am, yes I am
Yes I am...2017-03-3103 min
Sara Mulford MusicUnderneathlyrics:
She never thought she could be anything but pretty
She grew up thinking that was true
And she would walk around for miles into the city
Trying to decide what she could do
They talk her down and tell her not to even bother
Why don’t you ask for some advice from your father?
No one ever wonders
What is underneath her
What is underneath her? What is underneath her?
Quiet down, let us talk amongst ourselves
Take that pretty face and bug somebody else
No one ever wonders
What is underneath her
What is underneath her? What is...2017-03-3103 min
Sara Mulford MusicDice I Haven't Rolledlyrics:
Just let me figure this one out
Just let me figure out this one
I never wanted to be myself
Never wanted to be anyone
You’re counting under the table
I’m taking one too many turns
If only I were able,
I’d say the game is rigged for sure
But don’t hurt me ‘cause I wanna win
I’m waiting for the spin
That’ll get me to the end
Don’t hurt me ‘cause I wanna live
I’m loosening my grip
On the dice I haven’t rolled
Just let me re-do this one hour
Just let me r...2017-03-3103 min

Sara Mulford MusicAll The Winter BringsAs you sit upon the hill
The birds remember you still
You come here every day
Since your life was torn away
Do you recall when the girls would flock to meet you,
And their skirts would hover high above the knee?
Do you recall how they sang "hello, how are you?"
How their voices were the warmest thing?
Now cold is all the winter brings,
Brings, brings, ah...
As you look into the night
The sky is swallowing the light
Dust has settled on the floor
And you open up the door
Do you recall when you saw her...2017-02-2703 min
Sara Mulford MusicBlue LightNightfall never was a friend of mine
Never had reason to be kind
Hold me so I can't feel anything but
Heartbeats much slower than mine
But when you're gone
I don't have a single song
To fill this emptiness, so I
Talk to the blue light
The corner of my bed light, and it's
Never heard me curse myself
Well I cursed a thousand times
I told a thousand lies
And in this bed I'm always blue
Morning never was the time for me
I must wait 'til I can breathe
Call me, I'm missing your voice again
That...2016-08-0104 min

Sara Mulford MusicKinda NightIt's that feeling low, getting high
Told myself not to cry
You can't even see the pain
It's that getting late, walk of shame
Fingers numb in the rain
I don't even know my name
It's that dancing on table tops
Never want it to stop
Morning's gonna come again
It's that needing less, wanting more
I have been here before
Never thought I'd see the end
It's that kinda night, kinda night
Kinda night, kinda night,
Kinda night (x4)
Never been one to talk
Like I've got something wrong
Why'd I have to start this now?
Four AM in...2015-08-1004 min
