LOS ANGELES, CA (September 2, 2022) — On August 19, Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter Anna Moon released — “Psychic Visions” — the acoustic, folk leaning title track from her first solo record in over a decade and most personal project yet, Psychic Visions. Today, Anna delivers a dynamic studio performance video of the track filmed at Hatch Recording in East Los Angeles, bringing to life those silky harmonies and delicate guitar picking the song offers.

“Psychic Visions” is a lyrical depiction of her childhood. It sheds candlelight on the stories of generational trauma, grief, abuse, mental health struggles, and how we as humans can only love others as much as we love ourselves, all woven into the fabric of this record. The song is a blurry dreamstate offering of her experience growing up as a highly sensitive, artistic child giving us an indelible glimpse into the emotional landscape of the upcoming EP. 

Having broken into the indie music scene as a member of Moxi, Anna stears away from the electronic-driven sound of her previous band in this new endeavor. Finally ready to look her past in the eye, Anna began processing the only way she knew how: through her art. Pouring her all into this project, she now is ready to give this record to the world and celebrate no longer living in those spaces of fear, trauma or outdated thought processes.

Growing up in Littleton, CO, Anna started writing songs after being gifted her first guitar at 14 years old. “Littleton in the 90's particularly had an entire vibe of its own,” Anna shares, “It’s hard to even explain it unless you were there but the music on this EP is heavily influenced by that.” It’s a town with equally gorgeous nature right in your backyard, but there’s also a darker undercurrent and heaviness to it. “There’s kind of this expansive open feeling to it because there’s so much space but it feels a little haunting at the same time,” explains Anna. “There’s this park near my childhood home  that has this huge tree on top of a hill that my sister and I would go to all the time, and if the record could look like something it would be that park in the winter.”

After leaving Littleton, Anna made her way to Los Angeles where she has found the space to be able to go back to herself. “Los Angeles has influenced my music equally but in a much different way,” Anna discloses, “I feel like the roots of it are in Littleton and where I come from but Los Angeles has shaped the way it’s grown and evolved into what it is now.” Living in LA kickstarted a healing journey that has since led Anna to tap into her authentic self. 

“We can’t really heal until we find the root of the problem and take a good hard look at it.  I suppose that’s what these songs are: they are truly me: honest, vulnerable, coming back to myself, and splayed out for everyone to see,” she admits, “Which feels terrifying and beautiful all at once. And so I give this record to the world now and celebrate that I no longer live in those spaces of fear, trauma, or outdated programming.” Laced with unabashed sincerity, Psychic Visions is a raw embodiment of Anna’s voyage through healing, acceptance and growth.
