Singer-songwriter Lia Ices has returned with her new single “Young on the Mountain,” which is taken from her newly announced LP, Family Album, will be released on January 29, 2021 via her own label Natural Music.
The track capture a natural, free-flowing folk sound that emulates some of the best of the genre in the 60s/70s with an easy-breezy feel to it that showcases her songwriting ability.
You can find the music video for the track available to watch below, along with a quote from her about the meaning behind it.
I wrote ‘Young On The Mountain’ to crystallize the feelings I had right after we moved to Moon Mountain in Sonoma — I had a sense of freedom I’d never felt before, like I could really create my own reality and a way of life that I hadn’t even dreamt of yet. Living amongst towering oaks and fruit trees, reading the California naturalist poets, being so close to the birds and sky. The mountain changed me and my songwriting, and reinforced the notion that the more real life gets, the more mystical it feels.
