Her Mana: “Oh This Moment” (ft. Sarita and Gene Evaro Jr.)

By: Taylor Wallace

We love a side project, don’t we? Especially when ace collaborations are involved. For a couple of years, Ley Line’s Emilie Basez and Kate Robberson have been creating music as a Her Mana, honing an even earthier and more ethereal sound with the same incredible complex guitar noodling, harmonies, and wide range of world instruments that lead us right back to, well, the ley line.

“Oh This Moment” is the latest from the duo, beautifully blending terrestrial and the modern age into something almost impossible to describe, so let’s hear its magic instead.

You’ve got several chances to catch Her Mana this month: at their Thursday night residency at the Pershing all month long and a special performance at the Blanton Museum of Art this Saturday.

Jobi Riccio: “Buzzkill”

Jobi Riccio is a Nashville indie Americana artist, but with her new single “Buzzkill,” she leans into a more punk style, rock-forward sound. This shift mirrors her angsty, introspective lyrics, which capture what it’s like to navigate your twenties and the emotional phases that define those years. As someone in my mid-twenties, I find this […]
