Today, Mikey Ferrari released his new track "Am I even living anymore" after playing his debut European live shows in London and Paris, opening for his label-mate Matt Maeson, earlier this month.
Mikey says he wrote this song “last year [when it] was a particularly dark time for me. i was living out of my car, sleeping on various friends’ couches while i was writing and recording this project. i felt like i was doing so much and was so busy but at the same time had lost track and feeling of myself and my identity despite unpacking so much of the baggage of years prior. the song is about states of depression and trauma i’ve experienced and how i’ve really questioned if i was really living a life or just inhabiting my own body. a year later i am so happy to be in a different place than i was. i am very grateful to be able to say that.”
Earlier he shared the piano ballad “Montana”, aptly named after where he spent his adolescent years, and his harrowing, heart-wrenching track "Oxycontin" (+ live video directed by Jax Anderson). Earlier this month, the latest signee to esteemed Neon Gold Records (HAIM, Matt Maeson, et. al) released “Crash Course” from upcoming Stories From Montana EP.
Mikey Ferrari is a Los Angeles based alt-folk singer-songwriter who discovered music out of self-exploration. After experiencing challenges as an adolescent, Mikey found himself secluded in Montana where music became not only a means of passing time, but a means of genuine expression. Teaching himself guitar and piano, he began writing songs at 17 and started to produce songs for himself in college. Kid Cudi is cited as an influence taking into consideration the story telling and lyrics relating to mental health. On the other end of the spectrum, The Eagles and Billy Joel play an equal part in the musical inspiration of melody and arrangement.
Expect a lot more from Mikey in the near future.
In view of his earlier release “Oxycontin” Mikey would like to share this:
