Samia

Making Breakfast

Ashburn

There’s a line on Honey, the latest album from Nashville-via-NYC songwriter Samia, about Aspen Grove, a collection of 40,000 trees in the plains of North America, all connected by a single expansive root system. There’s no stronger metaphor for the audience the 25-year-old empathy engine has been generating since she began releasing music seven years ago. Her songs, her fans, her friends: one enormous, interconnected ecosystem. Honey, comprised of eleven new moments of catharsis, is by and for that organism. Set for release on January 27th 2023 via Grand Jury Music, the album was recorded at North Carolina studio Betty’s –- owned and operated by Sylvan Esso’s Nick Sandborn and Amelia Meath, frequent touring partners of Samia’s. It was produced by Caleb Wright, part of the team that helmed Samia’s breakthrough 2020 debut The Baby, and a founding member of one of Samia’s favorite bands, The Happy Children. It features some of her nearest and dearest friends: Christian Lee Hutson, Briston Maroney, Jake Luppen, Raffaella. Its songs were surreptitiously road tested for her devotees while opening for Lucy Dacus, Courtney Barnett, and more. The end result is what Samia calls simply “a real community record.” “We tried to be as honest as possible and keep the songs as raw as possible,” Samia said. “We talked a lot about zooming out and zooming in, giving a lot of weight to the small moments and considering them as part of a big picture, how they factor into everything else that’s happening in the world.” It’s that approach that allows many of the album’s lyrics to feel at once specific to its writer yet eternally applicable. “I hope you marry the girl from your hometown,” Samia deadpans on the album-opener, before delivering the exasperated punchline “and I’ll fucking kill her / and I’ll fucking freak out.” Elsewhere, on the brief but beautiful “Pink Balloons,” she asks bluntly, “How are you supposed to want to love me anymore?” The album is dotted with these moments of pathos and pain from Samia’s life, stolen and stretched so they could be about a million people struggling over a million things. While her previous work played with turning the personal into the universal, she’s breaking confident new ground here. The Baby was loose and bubbling, like wearing your mom’s big shoes while playing dress up. The knees on 2021 EP Scout were not so wobbly, and Samia began singing of gained perspective and softened edges. Honey is tight and heavy — the moment you notice you’re older now and those shoes don’t slip as much. When writing this album, Samia wondered “How do I take responsibility for the things that I’ve done? That’s at least the stage of my life that I’m at. I need to hold the mirror up to my behavior and my role in every relationship. And that’s so much harder than just thinking that you’re the main character and dancing through life.” So it’s no surprise that when the album chooses to dance – like on the ironic title-track, the buoyant “Amelia,” or the Rostam-produced tidal wave of “Mad At Me” – there’s an undeniable self-awareness to the brightness. Still, it’s when she brings all of those elements together on the album-defining “Sea Lions” that the record’s confidence is fully on display. The five-plus minute song spills soft and slow, a tranquil keyboard following Samia admitting an embarassing truth for any relationship: “I don’t want to talk / I don’t really want to work it out / we’re too far gone.” But as a sweet drum machine kicks in and one of Samia’s own voicemails fills the void — there’s community’s comforting touch again — you feel the denial melting from your chest and lose yourself under the back half of the song’s intoxicating club lights. It’s an idea of “honey” that Samia keeps returning to. “I was drinking a lot before I started writing this record,” she said, “and a lot of the songs are about that and that’s sort of what being drunk feels like to me. Is this sort of viscous slow, thick, heavy feeling. It’s the feeling of being under this beautiful blanket of something without having to face reality,” she continues Samia calls her music “pathologically confessional,” and though she doesn’t mind being the latest addition to the “sad girl” indie rock canon, Honey finds her less concerned with being a “sad girl” than fascinated by the things that keep us together. Memories. Friendship. Small things and big things like Aspen Grove. On this stylish and vulnerable new record, Samia holds the mirror up to herself and allows us to see ourselves in the reflection.

kill her freak out

Samia never warns us that she is launching new things, she just does

Just discovered this artist... I really, really like this track, especially the chorus – reminds me a lot of bands I used to listen to back in the &#39;90s, like Madder Rose (for all you young people who&#39;ve never heard of them, give them a listen, you&#39;ll hear the influence straight away).

An album is coming, omg, it&#39;s unbelievable, I adore you, I can&#39;t wait !!

An album is coming, omg, it's unbelievable, I adore you, I can't wait !!

i usually hate music videos cause theyre so different to what i imagined listening to the song but this one.. chefs kiss I am in love

still such an iconic song and music video :)

This song makes you feel so many feelings it’s crazy

can confirm this is what a samia concert is like 10/10

Samia Is the most underrated artist ever. The baby was the best singer songwriter album of 2020. Honey is shaping up to be a strong 2023 album of the year contestant , fragile, honest and vulnerable as it is so far from the singles released. You are simply incredible and i hope you never stop making music.

So pumped for this album. She’s literally never released anything bad. I’m obsessed ❤❤❤

Just discovered this song and im addicted, so beautifully done

New fav song. Listening to this high and having a religious experience. Best song in forever

I just heard this song on the radio for the first time and for some reason i wanted to see who it was. What a great sound she has! This song just jumped off the radio, like perhaps maybe a dozen songs each year. <br>Very catchy, new sound. <br>I hearby predict that this young lady will do more interesting things, perhaps, even great things.

ah yes a new song to put on loop for the month

This is blowing my mind I cannot believe this is everything

I’ve been obsessed with this song for a few weeks now… actually how I discovered Samia in the first place!

She’s risen when we needed her the most

didn’t think anything could inspire me to write it’s just not something i’m good at or ever thought about but every samia song makes me want to get my feeings out in lyrics

IM HANGING ON THE LINE THAT TIES ME TO YOUR PINK BALLOON HOWWW AM I SUPPOSED TO WANNA HOLD IT ANYMORE

I can feel it when she sings fresh produce

her music never fails to be such an emotional experience

Girl this just what I needed goin to sleep peacefully 🤍

LYRICS:
On the Bowery singin' Country Roads
I was outta town when Dymphna's closed
Got prettier in Denver
Phasing out of this old fairy tale
Apple cider, vinegar and kale
I'm fit and full as ever

If you want, I can take it off
And show you what my mama gave me

Only getting hotter as I sweat
I have never really been upset
Just hollow and amazing
All I want is to be like my dad
All I want's to give you what I had
I'm generous and vacant

If you want, I can take it off
And show you what my mama gave me

It's so hot
In this restaurant
I might just get fully naked

If you want, I can take it off
And show you what my mama gave me

(The cleaning thing, the tidal creek
It's so hot in this restaurant
(The murderous bird, her bleeding beak)
I might just get fully naked

Lyrics:
got a good feeling about this weekend  

do you wanna go to baby’s? 
it’s been a long week and I don’t want to think  
and Porches is playing  
i’ve got my girls and a hopeful heart 
we’re singing along, “can you do no harm?” 
whatever you want it’s at the bar 
nobody’s gonna tell you who you are 

it’s all 
honey, honey  
it’s all honey 

i wanna go to the beach and die on the beach 
i wanna be a mermaid  
not scared of sharks not scared to be naked 
i’m not scared of another day 
from under here all you can hear is the distant boom of the hells angels
from under here all you can fear is being saved and being wakeful 

it’s all 
honey, honey 
it’s all honey 

i’m gonna wear a little black dress in the middle of the street  take my picture 
and if you give me a beer i’ll forget to watch what i eat and i don’t care all you can do from this hotel room is fantasize 
all you can do when he needs you is close your eyes 

it’s all honey, honey 
it’s all honey 
it’s all honey, honey 
it’s all honey 
it’s all honey, honey 
it’s all honey 
it’s all honey, honey 
it’s all honey 
it’s all honey, honey 
it’s all honey

Lyrics:
your mom keeps threatening suicide on holidays
your sister’s in LA making dinner with fresh produce
and whether it’s a fallacy
you sing of love persistently
sometimes when you sing to me
i still believe i know you

how am i supposed to wanna hear it anymore?

i’m trying to make you laugh
sweating like an acrobat
sometimes i speak on your behalf
i’m nervous on a full moon
when they can see it in your eyes
that you’re about to hit the sky
i’m hanging on the line that ties me to your pink balloon

how am i supposed to wanna hold it anymore?

i know exactly when it turned into an accident in the
bathroom, it was in the stars or wine or it was late but i
must’ve let you down
cuz somewhere between then and now
i broke a promise that i didn’t even know i made

how are you supposed to wanna love me anymore?
how are you supposed to wanna love me anymore?

LYRICS:
last time i came here
i stayed at michael’s
so disappointed in our whole cycle
so i woke up, pushed myself o of a tightrope
and listened to Muna at dawn 

it’s been a whole year
i think that i grew up
but i still cry every time my dad hangs up 
no good intention is ever good enough 
to feel like i’ve done nothing wrong 

nothing could ever stop 
my ass from showing up 
to sing another song
for the people i love
 
driving with gabe through
stratified drylands
we all met in brooklyn
when we were still in bands
when finding a crowd was enough grounds to grandstand 
and we knew each other’s songs
 
nothing could ever stop my ass from showing up to sing another song for the people i love 

storing cans in the basement 
 
i’ll be awake when 
the tribulation comes
 
i’ll admit i faked it
i was freaked when 
all the lights went off

nothing could ever stop my ass from showing up to sing another song for the people i love

LYRICS:
We're in a tin box and I've got a toothpick
And I have been poking the air
Somebody gave you a knife for your birthday
I think I know who but that's not my affair

So I dance down the street like I'm Miss Angelina
My legs are so grounded and strong
And I'm not afraid that if I am the skipper
I'll steer my flesh into the bog

But is there something in the movies that's better than my love?
Is there something in the movies that's better than my love?

I carried around a stuffed pig in my arms
And I did it until I was five
I got it from someone who died of attention
And lived an extraordinary life

But I gave it to you on the day that we met
'Cause I already trusted you best
And everyone dies but they shouldn't die young
Anyway, you're invited to set

And is there something in the movies that's better than my love?
Is there something in the movies that's better than my love?

I left you in life 'cause you don't need my pen
To embellish your noteworthy parts
I only write songs about things that I'm scared of
So here, now you're deathless in art
You've got this and the movies and also my love
You can have it all, baby, I'm giving it up

LYRICS:
I got bug bites on my legs
I got two friends who look alike
I got coffee in the morning
And my mama in the night
And I got bad news but I didn't fight
I got bad news but I didn't fight

I got a big wheel in Montana and he told me yesterday
That a year ago, he looked me in the eyes and lied to me
Got an old friend in Japan
She's been mad at me before
It's just that she and I have got nothing in common anymore
He feels bad for doing what he did that night
She bought new shoes in Tokyo
And I got bad news but I didn't fight
I got bad news but I didn't fight

I got a lover in my bedroom or the smell of him at least
If he's somewhere getting smarter on a free man's odyssey
God, I'm really gonna blow with all this empathetic shit
I understand the thing you did and every reason you did it
But I'm so mad, dude, and I wanna cry
I got bad news but I didn't fight

I got bug bites on my legs
I got a big wheel in Montana
Got an old friend in Japan
Got a lover in my bedroom
And I got bad news but I didn't fight
I got bad news but I didn't fight
I got bad news but I didn't fight
I got bad news but I didn't fight

Lyrics:
They’re gonna have a baby
I’m thinking about Texas
I dreamt I was pregnant
I woke up with my guard down

You were next door with Gigi
Cocktails for breakfast
Walking her groceries back to the main house You
kissed her fragile hands in the sunlight
Cried in my arms and woke up in the backyard And when you
get passive I like to imagine you listening to worship songs on your iPod

I’ve never been this bad
Can I tell you something?
I’ve never felt so unworthy of loving
I hope you marry the girl from your hometown and
I’ll fucking kill her
And I’ll fucking freak out

I’ve got a letter still in my backpack
its from the St Paul Police Department
they wanna give me my state ID back
they gave me a number but I haven’t called it remember we
searched all night when I lost it? I thought about lying when I
found my passport cuz I would’ve stayed kinda drunk and
afraid in your room till I died in your room if you asked for it

I’ve never been this bad
Can I tell you something?
I’ve never felt so unworthy of loving
I hope you marry the girl from your hometown and
I’ll fucking kill her
And I’ll fucking freak out

Lyrics: 
couldn’t afford to;
why would I want to
pick up the glass I’m stepping around?

you shut the door
as soon as I whispered
“do you ever wish you weren’t a coward?”

are you still mad at me?
are you still mad at me?
hiding is easy
it’s like a daydream
you can be nowhere all the time

hurts to be somewhere
cuz you gotta stay there
after you say what’s on your mind

are you still mad at me?
are you still mad at me?

i don’t wanna know i don’t
i don’t wanna know anymore
i don’t wanna know i don’t
anymore
anymore

(papa mbye)
why you gotta stay so private
everything you think so violent
so violent

I kept it right behind us
and I shouldn’t have to sit around here,
watch you play with fire
that bitter taste
so so sweet
so full of memories
hey John Doe, notice me
clear the cache
watch your feet
keep going on,
and on,
and on
and on

are you still mad at me?
are you still mad at me?

i don’t wanna know i don’t
i don’t wanna know anymore
i don’t wanna know i don’t
anymore

portland brew for the dogs and the discourse 
sawyers got a brand new job at the golf course 
get to know your bathroom floor the hard way 
put me in your car and drive down broadway 
hear your voice in my ear in the morning 
one long sleepless night to florida 
mouth hanging open in your 4runner 
digging up shark teeth with your mother
 
when somebody loves you 
they take you as you are 

almost every time the plane lands
i can see my mom with both hands 
latched to the nose of the aircraft
in a ray of pink light and her sweatpants
 
you tell your sister you’ll be home in an hour 
if she cleans her room and she takes a shower 
but there are no stipulations
you’re already on your way and 

when somebody loves you 
they take you as you are 

when somebody loves you 
they take you as you are

LYRICS
Keeping you awake, keeping you awake on purpose
Hey, did I make a mistake and do my mistakes worsen?
I would give it up to every man I love, I take what I can get
And every woman too, I would too, that's my only secret left
I will entertain your feet or your hands for a triptych
Sell me at the Strand on the stands for a fat brick
I get what I want and your girlfriend too
Make a predator of me
I'll be good to you, I'm worth it
You, I'm worth it
So before I turn it off, little light at my bedstand
Ask me what I thought of the life that I led and
I'll take off your pants, say goodnight to the ears there
Put you where I sing in the light in the damp air
I'll be good to you
I'll be good to you
I'm the moving mouth, moving mouth with my eyes closed
Breathing an excuse, breathing loose through my new nose
I will buy a round on your dime like I used to
Feeding you my cake, you my cake, eating it too
I'll be good to you
I'll be good to you

Lyrics:
screaming porn kills love
outside your window with the adventists
i know it’s wrong
can’t remember how i got like this

you said when i come on the radio it makes you wanna die
well if i shut up can i come inside?

i don’t wanna talk
i don’t ever wanna work it out
we’re too far gone
i just wanna see your house

you’re looking at me like i’m the stranger here
i’m as strange as i’m standing in your mirror
i’ll remember it june, 7pm
getting pasta watch your
screensaver sea lions swim
wear my hat that you hate to the
party and laugh at the movie posters
we’ll never be like those lucky poseurs

why’s your phone going to voicemail

LYRICS:
There's a restaurant in the East Village
Where all the waiters are celebrities
My first love waited hours in the back
Making brazen advances toward Waverly
There's lore of a movie star leaving his number
For her on an old receipt
All I know is that she didn't call him
What a mystery, Waverly

Hey, I live
Across the street and
Wanted to know if you'd be my friend
Won't call again

I'm a patron dressed up like a person
I'm a creature instead of me
Dark at night and sunlight in the morning
Decide that I'll try aging gracefully
Here are all of my friends and my parents
This is my birthday party
You can push all the tables together
But you can't pull one over on Waverly

Hey, I live
Across the street and
Wanted to know if you'd be my friend
Won't call again

Lyrics:
Firefly night platform shoes 
Red light you were right 
Only big as my tequila cup 
In the water with the bugs 
Sit on it and zip it up 
You can think of everyone 
And still only be staring at them 

But you get your dreams for free
You get your dreams for free
You get your dreams for free 

Swimming to the other side 
Someday I’m gonna 
When I finally forgive myself 
I’ll be tired and sunburnt  
Tripping over spanish moss again
Today is all of it 
There are six minutes of brain activity
After the body’s dead  

Cuz you get your dreams for free
You get your dreams for free you 
Get your dreams for free 

Ferris wheel 
The sun in the sky 
I believe you  
And I know why 
CPR, an iron lung 
Feedback loop 
Biting my tongue 

Mother nature wipe us out
Grand prize; we tried 
Put a stick on it and  
Build a coliseum  
Watch them bleed into the night
Are you scared to die? 
The trick is don’t arrive  
You can see it in your daughter’s eyes
That’s the purpose and the price  

And she gets her dreams for free
She gets her dreams for free
She gets her dreams for free

Lyrics:
Everything with David is totally fine 
Don’t freak out it’s gonna be alright 
You didn’t say anything weird I promise 
But maybe you didn’t need tequila for this

Trying to drown in the fountain of youth  
How does anybody know when they’re telling the truth? 
I don’t remember why I’m saying sorry 
But let’s connect at the after party 

To me it was a good time 
To me it was a good time
 
Never enough if you’re always too much 
A couple bald men fighting over a brush 
So you were bullied in high school and you’re looking for payback
Like finding a needle in a stack of needles

Come on baby, tell it again 
Every single thing has already been said  
And how much better can anything get 
Than sitting on your porch remembering it? 

To me it was a good time 
To me it was a good time

Jesus, let me take the wheel 
Aren’t you getting tired of all these people 
Your 15 minutes have become eternal 
From publishing port mortem journals

Your makeups running, American Honey 
Dancing to pour some sugar on me 
There might not be a second coming 
That doesn’t mean it was all for nothing  

To me it was a good time 
To me it was a good time
To me it was a good time

Lyrics:
got a good feeling about this weekend  
do you wanna go to baby's? 
it's been a long week and I don't want to think  
and Porches is playing  
i've got my girls and a hopeful heart 
we're singing along, can you do no harm? 
whatever you want it's at the bar 
nobody's gonna tell you who you are 

it's all 
honey, honey  
it's all honey 

i wanna go to the beach and die on the beach 
i wanna be a mermaid  
not scared of sharks not scared to be naked 
i'm not scared of another day 
from under here all you can hear is the distant boom of the hells angels
from under here all you can fear is being saved and being wakeful 

it's all 
honey, honey 
it's all honey 

i'm gonna wear a little black dress in the middle of the street  take my picture 
and if you give me a beer i'll forget to watch what i eat and i don't care all you can do from this hotel room is fantasize 
all you can do when he needs you is close your eyes 

it's all honey, honey 
it's all honey 
it's all honey, honey 
it's all honey 
it's all honey, honey 
it's all honey 
it's all honey, honey 
it's all honey 
it's all honey, honey 
it's all honey 

nobody's gonna tell you who you are

Lyrics:
Getting all lit up about the outdoor malls
Baby let me show you the synthetic pond 
Couldn’t we believe it was the hand of god
Making water boogie to a Ke$ha song 

You are so disarming with your honest smile 
Tepidly confessing that you swallowed a fly
I just saw my whole life flash before your eyes 
And i don’t wanna charm anyone this time 

Kissing you’d be kissing on the USA 
I’d be so afraid of what your daddy’d say 
I could fetishize you for the whole damn day
Flying while i’m lying that i hate LA 

What if we could shut up for an hour or two
Quiet, memorizing what the people do
Wouldn’t have to try and find myself in you 
I don’t wanna charm you 

I don’t wanna make you mine 
Half life of my mystifying 
Isn’t long enough for trying
 
I don’t wanna charm anyone this time
I don’t wanna make anybody mine 
Mostly it’s just I don’t wanna end up crying 
I don’t wanna charm you

I don’t wanna charm you

Lyrics:
When the air hit my face
And it smelled like the truth
I saw you in the lake
I saw you in the lake

I lay flat on the bed
Really cools me off
Keep it dumb, make it soft
Keep it dumb, make it soft

Watch the water drip
From my mouth to yours
I like how you take a sip
I like how you take a sip

Can you make it light?
Can you do no harm?
Break the water with your arms
Break the water with your arms
Break the water with your arms
Break the water with your arms

Lyrics:
Who’s that
Shadow kicking sunset?
Running up with Muriel to catch the last song

Carolina in the springtime
Caleb at the fire pit scaling the beyond
All I’m running with, babe
Is a blank slate towards the ocean
Fuck your rear view
There’s no room to shoulder hindsight where we’re going

Huh, delight
To live another night
Huh, delight
Delight

Amelia
She’s giving me that half smile
She knows something about me
I do not know

And behind her
You can see the sun
Reaching its long fingers
Into a chokehold

She is shuffling between the strobes
Sucking up and rolling the globe
I’m like how’d you get your leg so high up

Fuck
Delight, to live another night
Huh, delight
Delight

Walking into the middle of the party
I’m writing a poem
Somebody stop me

Simmer, wet as the LA river
Me and all my friends are up late bonding
I can feel the earth it’s shaking underneath my shoes
Oh my god, there’s nothing quite like
Doing what you came to do
Percolating, brea
thing, dancing, dying

Huh, delight
To live another night
Huh, delight
Delight
Delight

Percolating, breathing, dancing, dying
