KiNG MALA Shares New Song “sugarblind”
Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Areli Castro, aka KiNG MALA has shared a new song “sugarblind”, following “Shadows” released back in February.
She recorded the song with her producer Rob Auerbach at his home studio. The track features rock sound vibe like previous singles.
“When this song was first being written,” KiNG MALA told American Songwriter about the song. “it had the feeling of the alternative rock music that I grew up listening to—bands like Cage the Elephant, Young the Giant, Alabama Shakes, The Black Keys, Arctic Monkeys and more. I also grew up listening to classic soul music, and that has really shaped the way I write melodies and harmonies as well. I wanted to keep that inspiration while bringing it into a more alt-pop space and putting my spin on it.”
“I typically write pretty heavy stuff, but 'sugarblind' is really different,” she continued. “It is so fun and carefree and I want the listeners to feel that, especially if they are typically melancholic the way I am.”- source : American Songwriter
