Lachi Release Free Solo Piece “Illusion” MP3 and Video

Inspired by Regina Spektor, and Radiohead, Lachi releases solo piece “Illusion” as a free Amazon MP3 download, along with a intense yet pristine music video.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 
PRLog (Press Release) - Jan. 23, 2012 - NEW YORK (Jan. 23, 2012)-- Showcasing her expressive voice and phrasing, Lachi’s “Illusion” is a stripped down track recorded in one take in Brooklyn’s Royal Blue Studios, and produced by Stanley Banks, bassist for George Benson, on tape with no frills. The song deals with universal themes of acceptance in a straightforward way.

“We, most of us, hide behind illusions and are afraid of the change we’d face in others if we finally unveiled,” says Lachi. “However, the tune is hopeful, as it points out that maybe it wouldn’t be so bad.” The video for “Illusion” is stark and visually compelling, alternating between shots of a lone Lachi at the piano and a woman suffering an internal struggle.  Given the themes of redemption and biblical allusions, New York’s Church For All Nations seemed the perfect setting for the video.  Amazingly, the whole thing was shot on the lunch break of another Lachi video shoot, “Bug Out”.

“Illlusion” is available as a free download from Amazon here:  www.amazon.com/Illusion/dp/B006U91IWE

The “Illusion” video is available now: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uptEd9WFm10




"As a legally blind, black female that, let's face it, acts white, is a tomboy and acts like she's not blind, I've encountered an intense amount of resistance from the world around me. My songs are all about growth, struggles, life-lessons, empowerment, poetry and strength. I don't think the topics will change over time, as I have always been a person of the earth. If I have an intense experience, be it love or hate, it's met with poetry, reality and depth. That's my inspiration - my life."
