New Music: Madilina – san francisco

New York-based singer-songwriter Madilina heads to other climes on the indie-infused san francisco.

It’s one of two journeys that occur within the song; the first is literal, as the song’s protagonist contemplates swapping New Jersey for the Golden City. Life changes are the other theme, with mention of lilies, a symbol of both rebirth and devotion. Love, belief, and the future play off within the lyrics, the smooth vocals turning what could be tumultuous into something confessional.

With an arrangement that has resonances of The Sundays and classic West Coast folk of the 70s, the song does have a vintage atmosphere to it. But it’s equally one that many of us can relate to, tapping into memories and experiences of our own, making it new and timeless.
