Molly Tuttle - Sleepwalking
LCM Song Of The Day: ‘Sleepwalking’ - Molly Tuttle
Our featured track today is the beautiful, very personal and reflective ‘Sleepwalking’, taken from Molly’s latest album ‘When You’re Ready’.
"'Sleepwalking' is one of the more personal songs on the album," comments Molly. "I wrote it by myself, digging into the anxiety I have felt for many years about the effects of climate change and the ever-rising cost of living in the San Francisco Bay Area (where I grew up). I wanted to symbolically incorporate my experience as a woman with total hair loss (Alopecia Totalis) into the video for the song, because that part of who I am also informed the lyrics, in a subtler way. I lost my hair early on in life, and at times that experience has made me fear change and hold onto the past. With the visual, I wanted to raise the question of what it means to 'be yourself' again after a part of who you are disappears. What do we cling to in times of change? Hopefully each person who watches what we made will find a personal meaning in it."
